So I'm looking to get a copy of lightroom. Would you all recommend getting LR3 or waiting for 4 to be released?

Ahh, is the Lr sale over? The upgrade will probably be about $99 or so, I'm guessing. I don't really know.

This seems a reasonable price, if you think about it: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832105807&nm_mc=OTC-Froogle&cm_mmc=OTC-Froogle-_-Software+-+Digital+Media+Creating+and+Editing-_-Adobe-_-32105807

I'm taking some classes so i can purchase the educational version for $69 on amazon.

It is a no-brainer at $70. I think you will like it.

I purchased it! I can't wait to get it and start playing around with it! Now I just have to decied if I'm going to upgrade in a couple months with v4 comes out.

Good for you, you won't be disappointed. You might want to go ahead and make an account on Adobe, they have some decent presets for download, but you have to have an account to DL some. I picked up a second copy for a buddy this week, came Friday, B&H was super fast. They actually sent it fast, even though I opted for slow boat free shipping.
