Right, I see what you're disputing now - I read the words 'extends the
capabilities of Flash Professional 8', and just assumed Adobe knew what
they were writing...

Did you follow the wrong link
No, man, it's the same link. It takes you to "Flash Professional 9
ActionScript 3.0 Preview" which is the installation for "Adobe Flash 9
Public Alpha". See:
Flash Professional 9 ActionScript 3.0 Preview This preview of the
ActionScript 3.0 feature which
is planned to release in the next version of the
Flash® authoring tool, scheduled for release in 2007,
extends the capabilities of Flash Professional 8
software to include support for the new ActionScript
3.0 language, enabling you to take advantage of the
new ActionScript virtual machine in Adobe® Flash Player 9.
Like I said, it says "extends Flash 8" because it IS basically just
Flash 8 with AS3 support, but still Flash 9. It's not "an extension"
for Flash 8, but rather a new installation (that requires that you
have a valid Flash 8 license, but still a separate application).
If there's such an extension to Flash 8 for it to support AS3, it's
not that.
