According to ThinkSecret, Adobe is pushing hard to have Creative Suite 3 available in 2006 rather than mid-2007 as has been previously reported. Apparently they're getting much help from Apple in this regard as they work to convert Photoshop and Illustrator to Universal Binary which will enable them to run natively on either current G5 Power PCs or the new Intel chips.
I'm hoping this means that development is also under way on Flash and After Effects in the UB world. I'm really on the fence now about switching back to Mac (which I'm going to do no matter what) and whether I should go with a current G5 iMac to save a few bucks now, or forge ahead with a new Intel-based Mac and have to wait for Photoshop, Flash, etc. Yes, I know about Rosetta, but apparently speed tests for those apps haven't been great.
