Stop the presses! According to a review on MacCentral (Adobe unveils Photoshop 7.0 for Mac OS X) and another article on CNET (Picture this: Photoshop on OS X) tonight, Adobe will unveil Photoshop 7.0 for OS X on Monday.

It appears the suggested retail price for Photoshop 7.0 will be $600, and an upgrade to the new version from Photoshop Elements or Photoshop LE will cost $499.
