LR3 is great for me - echo kiwi's comments from the top of this post.

I have had a play with LR 3 and used it for 30 days as a trial, and cannot work with it...

i have my own systems and things in place for catalouging...

so my work flow is to cull / check using simple img viewing software, and editing the Raws if need be in CS5

but i have seen a few others use LR3 almost exclusively, so each to their own, try it, see if you like it and work with what your comfortable with

Whilst I'm not a full time pro, I am heavily involved in photography having shot 20 weddings this year plus a few other events/sessions. . I use LR almost exclusively for my work and I only go to photoshop on very rare occasions where more serious editing is required (ie. montages, background removals, panoramics etc). Also, the full time guys I work with also use LR almost exclusively too but as a number of posters have said, it's quite dependent on your needs and personal preferences.

Don't know about you, but it took me a lot longer than 30 days (that the trial version allows) to notice all the features and learn how to use it. I would never go back to Picasa now!
