I've never been in favour of upgrading just for the sake of it. I was quite happy with PS7 for a long time when I was only using it to make CD artwork. When I started with digital photography I made the jump to CS2 because I'd read about the new features that were specifically targeted at that area - and which turned out to be extremely useful. I upgraded to CS3 mainly for the vastly improved Camera Raw engine and Smart filters, but now I'm quite happy - I can't honestly think of any occasion when I've thought "If only there was a tool/filter/function to do......."

Well, OK - they could improve the tone-mapping. But apart from that I see no pressing need to upgrade again.
