This sounds interesting (from the feature list):
“The Pixel Bender just-in- time (JIT) compiler can also be used to process other types of data, such as sound or mathematical functions, asynchronously in a separate thread.”
Does anyone have a pointer to more information about this.(mathematical functions)?

I’ve been using it for a few months already & love it. Hope it gets adopted soon. Having said that, it is still quite painful to install the flash player on 64 bit linux. I hope we can have a native 64 bit version of the flash player (and AIR!) soon

The auto update didn’t work. When I started my pc (winXP) a window appeared saying a new version was available, I clicked through, did the update, restarted and firefox 3 just said I was missing the plugin (showing that blue lego brick that they show for no plugin).
So not only did the auto update fail to give me the new version it also removed the old version! Thus in firefox I had no flash - I had to download the installer from adobe.com to and run that for it to work.

How do we update the Adobe Flash CS4 built-in test player? I replaced the /Applicatons/Adobe Flash CS4/Players directory with the new version, but this does not seem to update the built-in test player, which still traces “10.0.2.54″.

And Abode still failed to fix their broken security “enhancement”. Wonderful. Thanks for breaking every website in the entire world, Adobe!
Seriously, this is straight intolerable. Now I’m going to have to ditch Flash for file uploading. Great. Time to switch to Gears instead! Goodbye Adobe, you just lost a customer.

Adobe just cost us thousands of dollars in development since we built a custom interface that is now broken in Flash 10. thanks guys

Mike,
The new player is causing some problems for legacy content for a lot of our users due to the different way it handles NaN than previous players - who’s a good person to talk to about that?

I really had enough and am looking for an alternative to Flash as of now.
Neither Firefox, IE 7 and 8 Beta nor CometBird since their latest update is displaying Flash player on my site. Thanks Adobe, you have just buried Flash as a viable option for many webmasters.
