I wonder if Macromedia will build upon Director's 3d support, while keeping Flash 2d? 
That would help keep the two product lines different, because there is def a lot of 
(unwelcome?) crossover between the two packages.

It's funny - the same sentiments have been voiced since '97, when Flash was
introduced, though they get more paranoid with each upgrade. I remember way
back in the early 90s, designers worrying that the new Photoshop filters
were going to do them in, because "now anybody can make a drop shadow".

With this upgrade, Flash is encroaching on some formerly shockwave turf, but
it's far from replacing Director. I, for one, see the fact that Unicode
support is one of the main features, and it makes me think that Director
will get the same... but I'm an optimist.
