Too bad Flash 10 is still using the old Netscape Plugin Interface (npi). This is one of the biggest perf killers on a Mac. Safari supports new plugin interface that is a lot more flexible and allows a lot better refresh updates and less polling.

Flash 3D engines like Sandy, Papervision, and Away3D should see significant performance improvements, according to the material released by Adobe Labs. I'm excited for better online 3D applications, and looking forward to the day when online apps have full access to the GPU. In the meantime, 3D applications will need to be on the desktop.

Still no 64-bit Linux client? At this point there are probably more 64- than 32-bit Linux systems.

Yeah, I wish they worked on compatibility, stability, and security instead of making the damn thing even more of a resource hog.

Native 3D in Flash? I can add a 3D view to http://openphotovr.org and beat Photosynth at their own game. By the way, anybody here interested in participating? It's open source now (GPL).

I cant' wait for Flash to be replaced by something fully open-source; HTML5?

That would be nice and all, but one huge advantage of Flash is that Adobe iterates quite often with new features/bug fixes, and thus keeps up with new technologies. W3C obviously does the same, but at a much slower rate since we all have to wait for them to take ages to make a new specification, and then wait for it to actually be implemented, and then hope that the implementation is consistent across browsers. Also, I believe Adobe just opened up the specification for Flash.
