    personally, I think that's an excellent deal considering what is included even when compared to like FCPX at 300$.
    Just a reminder of what's included in Production Premium for anyone who is not aware

    Adobe Premiere Pro CS5
    Adobe After Effects CS5.5
    Adobe Photoshop® CS5 Extended
    Adobe® Audition® CS5.5
    Adobe Flash® Catalyst® CS5.5
    Adobe Flash® Professional CS5.5
    Adobe Illustrator® CS5
    Adobe® OnLocation™ CS5
    Adobe Encore® CS5
    Adobe Device Central CS5.5
    Adobe Bridge CS5
    Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5
  • Yes, it is very good value.
    I can't imagine how many pros will switch (and Adobe specially mentioned that you can get as much as 9 packages if you are owner of other product :-) )
    So, FCP X can play good role to calm your conscience. Buy it. Get Adobe product. Get refund for FCP X :-)
  • I got CS5 for student. The promotion code doesn't work on CS 5.5 upgrade. It's still $399 :(

    No FCPX. No CS 5.5 for me. It's OK. There will be FCPX 2.0 and CS 6.
  • >The promotion code doesn't work on CS 5.5 upgrade. It's still $399 :(

    Of course. No one promised you that.
    Look at @stefanos comment. They have 80% discounts on student versions if you have proper data (Production Premium CS5.5 for 449$).

  • Yeah student discount is ridiculously low.

    Adobe doesn't allow major version upgrade for those who have student copies. Since this is a minor incremental update from 5.0 to 5.5, they allowed $399 upgrade option. So student copy becomes non-student version. Then update to 6.0 will be possible.

    Nah.. I'm not getting it. Quite happy with CS5.
  • For non-North Americans: my understanding is that outside North America, Adobe educational software isn't permitted to be used commercially. See http://www.modelmayhem.com/po.php?thread_id=668205&page=1#post14551713

    So for us, the student discount is much less worthwhile.
