For what it's worth, the Photoshop image browser is useful to me when I know roughly what folder an image is in. For browsing and exploring larger sets of images, PhotoExplorer or GraphicConverter work much better.
GraphicConverter provides a fast, intuitive, explorer-like interface (using the fairly new OS X file browsing interface) that displays folders, thumbnails within a selected folder and finally, the selected image.
While it's a great tool for browsing around your images, sorting and viewing them and so on, it doesn't serve well as a tool for managing and keeping track of a large number of images. I've spent some time looking at Extensis Portfolio and iView Media Pro, both highly regarded image management programs. My initial conclusion is that Media Pro has a much easier to use interface than Portfolio, has better data exporting capabilities, and simply put, is a joy to work with!
