I have looked at their pages a bit in the past. I'd look again now, but my computer's going through one of its periodic won't-load-any-web-pages phases. I'll try again in half an hour or so. >> working from Lea/Matsuda/Miyashita's 'Java for 3D and VRML Worlds,' > >Wow! Where'd you find a copy of that from? Haven't seen that around for >years. It was on a colleague's shelf, CD-less. She reckons she only got it a few months ago, but it seems to have been out of print for a while.

It's informative enough, but I've spotted a few mistakes. Nothing too serious, but I must admit there are times when I'm not altogether sure of your meaning... Are there any other Java 3D tutorials you (or anyone else) would recommend?
