An easy solution is to set up a rule in Entourage that saves the attachment
to a folder and then triggers an AppleScript to process the file in the
folder.

All Adobe products need an alias (as it seems that you are aware) - they
can't do the coercion for you as you tried in your script. So do something
simpler:

    tell application "Finder"
        set theDoc to every file of folder "Macintosh HD:blahblah:" as alias
    end tell
    tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS"
        open theDoc
    end tell
