But you are right, it is not as big as I personally was hoping for. It might happen, maybe, some day... Maybe they can take the schokwave 3d support and work it into Flash at some point as an add-in or something but it looks like the only massively distrubuted 3d OpenGL/DirectX capable control is still Director which seems to have been abandonded for a nice chunk of 3-4 years.

Still good though.

Multi-threaded vector renderer. Now we take advantage of up to 4 Cores/CPUs for vector rendering. Multi-threaded bitmap filters. Same as above but this applies to bitmap functionality specifically instead of the core vector rasterizer only. Multi-threaded video decoding. The VP6 video codec will now run in a separate thread if a multi-core system is detected which leaves the main thread to do rendering and post processing of the video. With this true 1080p video is now possible on most modern dual core machines. Also, the responsiveness is improved with this change. The Sorenson codec on the other hand did not get this change for technical reasons.

Everything on large screen resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 including *.flv. Mostly its for fair presentations and exhibitions. Hardware rendering support for the graphic output is one of my two main wishes. second is "dual core" support. so have the power of a full machine and not only half.

Flash 3d engines are actually 2d engines faking 3d and it won't have 3d support but opening the door to using OpenGL and DirectX might hint to a future 3d direction. Using DirectX or OpenGL right now for 2d makes everything faster and pushes what you can do further in 2d flash.

Likely, it will be just what it says. It will provide hardware acceleration for Flash bitmap scaling. Mac OS X (and Vista I believe) uses OpenGL and DirectX respectively to offload the rendering of the windowing system to the 3D capabilities of video cards. I'm interested to see the performance gains. Tangentially, even this should provide some benefits to Flash-based 3D engines. I don’t think this is going to have anything to do with 3D engines.
