Its true, there is a bug in the java implementation on mac that keeps java applications from being able to mix AWT and SWT.  If you are not a java developer those are just 2 visual libraries for layout and building guil apps in java.

Anyhow, that seems to have been dealt with somewhat on the mac platform for eclipse, so adobe should be able to work around those issues now.

And yes I think that MAX would be a great place for that kind of an announcement, but the public news on that front has made no promises.  So we will see.  I know I will be sitting front and center at MAX waiting to see what they do decide to annouce :) I always enjoy the keynotes and sneak peaks at max.  I am just glad we got Tim Buntel back on the CF team.  I dont know what they would have done at MAX without him :)

Ok,  enough from me.

Mac OS wise.  Has anyone tried installing Eclipse 3.2, and installing the Flex 2 plug-in for it? 
 
I recall reading somewhere that the Mac eclipse had some issues with Flex, and that these issues were going to be addressed in the 3.2 release of Eclipse.  Since 3.2 (at least the beta) has been available for download for a while now - it may be already possible to run the IDE on a mac. 
 
So you might be able to see at least a preview of the Mac IDE in action.  This is assuming the Flex2 plugin is written in Java, and works on OSX.   the SDK already works on MacOS..  and adobe claimed the problems weren't with their flex2 plugin, but were in Eclipse..

The last official work I heard was that they were working hard to get a beta ready for the fall.  We are almost there so hopefully we will get to play soon.

On that note some screenshots were released into the wild last week showing us the progress.  You can see them here
