Ajax, Spry Widget, and the Browser Compatibility features are AWESOME. Although CS3 provides support for editing Ajax, it only shows examples of the Spry Ajax scripts, so it might not be able to fully edit a script that is custom coded.
You can select HTML, and turn inline CSS into an actual CSS file, and then it will apply the correct style to the HTML using a class in the CSS file.
CS3 allows you to see what your website would look like on a mobile phone too (device central).
Here's a quick flash movie about the feature list
I'm pretty sure I will be upgrading.

There are a ton of things Adobe could improve/add, but if you take a look at the new feature list, you'll see there is quite a bit added already.
The new CS3 isn't for everyone. People who don't care about standards or ajax, won't get much benefit from CS3 at all.
I use FP, but didn't upgrade to EW. I didn't see the benefit, even though it is a MAJOR upgrade for thousands of other people.

f Adobe can't roll out a new version of DW CS3 that looks like it is really a part of the CS3 bundle (new interface) before the end of the year, then I think dreamweaver is DEAD!
- What would be replacing it?

I'm overall happy with it. I'd like to have seen ASP.NET 2.0 support. But thats understandable. I think the validation controls are a dramatic upgrade.

Do I have to name names?
- As far as what will replace it? Yeah, because I've only used DW/FP/UltraEdit/TextPad... None of them come close to the level of integration DW includes (in terms of working on a complete site).

- Maybe Adobe is waiting to see how the EW handles ASP .NET before they decide what to add. Hopefully they will do something though. DW has dominated the PHP market for years, it would be great to see equal support for asp .net.

According to the lady I just spoke with at Adobe you can upgrade the educational versions at the same price you upgrade the Pro version for. I haven't tried it yet but at this moment they are running a deal where you can upgrade to the CS3 suite for $340.

Don't forget to add the VAT.

Printable Version 
Did they put in a better FTP experience? (not that I've read), did they greatly improve team/versioning support (not that I'm aware of), did they improve the (amost web standard) PHP experience? (not likely while adobe CF hangs on), did they improve the IDE inteface? (nope, not one bit! :) 
In respect to PHP there are a multitude of good quility IDEs. 
How generous of them. I'll take 6. Not.
