thats strange, I heard that microsoft was working on a program to challange flash (although it probably won't reach consumers until 2006-ish) so why would Micro$oft help Macromedia? Oh well money turns the stiffest necks :/
I guess it also is only improving compatibility not ground breaking.

I hurd Macromedia would be bought by microsoft. But that's old news.

Why can they go the leader in PAD and cell phones/ Samsung and NOKIA. So they can get somekind of version integrated.
