A licensed copy of Photoshop CS2, Creative Suite 2, Production Studio, Adobe Web Bundle, or Adobe Video Bundle is required to use this technology beyond a two-day trial period.

 

Means anybody can use for 2 days without owning any Adobe product...

 

BTW I'm all excited about this. I'm hoping for OpenGL zooming in final. Started 800KB/s, now getting 300KB/s, it's slower every minute. Will be a mess in a few hours in the morning.

Even a valid SN isn't enough, it requires activation after that. So Pirated SNs will eventually stop activating and those people will get stuck with a 2-day demo.

 

On the plus side, letting people use it for two days is a great way to get people to try it out.

Photoshop is:

 

A) Adobe's flagship product.

 

B) The most requested UB from Adobe/Macromedia.

 

C) The reason many people aren't buying CS2.

 

So, I kinda expected this to be the first. It instills a lot of faith in Adobe from an audience that has really been in doubt and I think that's the only purpose it serves. I hope we'll see more betas of other products too... but I wouldn't hold your breath. This just achieved their main objective without letting ALL of the new secrets/features out. Who knows. they aren't Apple, so they just might post them all as betas.

 

I think this build is phenomenal so far, but time will tell. The tacky icon is an eyesore, but the new tweaks and the speed boost make it worth it.
