Version 3 of the application includes expanded conferencing tools for real-time collaboration on designs and a broad palette of tools for manipulating design documents. Architectural Studio 3.0 will be available starting Thursday, priced at $200 for a one-year subscription. --David Becker, Special to ZDNet News
