I don't think Macromedia wants to try to compete with JBuilder, VisualAge, etc. Web developers are our main audience and strengths in the visual tools arena.
If you want a good Java IDE, a great one to try is IDEA from <www.intellij.com>. It's great for productivity. Has a lot of features for real programmers that other Java IDEs don't. If you want more bells and whistles, wizards, built-in debugger, etc. the obvious choices are JBuilder, WebGain Studio and Forte for Java. Generally, I recommend a simple, programmer-oriented (rather than wizard oriented) IDE or editor (cvim, emacs) and a separate debugger program like Karmira Bugseeker. Scott S.
