I found it interesting, and sad to hear on the latest Aint Your Dads Java that it sounds like the coming JavaFX Desktop will be a Windows only release (or more Windows focussed release - please correct me if I'm wrong). There was mention that Java 6 Update 11 would come at the same time (I'd heard that update 10 would be getting turned "on" for the automated update, I guess they're doing this as part of 11).
Either way - I realllllly hope Mac and Linux users are not left out in the cold here...
