I am a huge fan of B&W Pro conversion - The best part is you have a 
large degree of intuitive control over the conversion of your color 
image to B&W. The result is an RGB file, but you can always convert to 
greyscale. The pre-filters alone are worth it (I didn't know how 
useful magenta filter was until I tried it) with the added bonus of 
being able to toy with digital "exposures" and contrasts. 

It's like using the channel mixer, but in a much more intuitive fashion

my two cents
