OK, I've been getting private questions from some of you as to when you can expect to get Mac|Linux support. Here's the scoop.
Our first deliverable as part of our multi platform strategy will be an embeddable Mac|Linux|Windows viewer. This component will allow you to view your scenes in 3D on Os X and on Linux. It will be a low footprint download with minimal functionality including animating from camera view to camera view. This is actually the first step in our mutli platform strategy. We released the Beta version of our scene editor for Windows only and the message came back loud and clear from you that you wanted multi platform support. We're committed to doing that and here's how we're actually going to do it.
First we will deliver the embeddable multiplatform viewer. This will allow you to add a SceneCaster scene to your blog or any web page with copy and paste functionality directly from your web page editing tool. You can expect to see this in a release towards the end of this calendar year.
We're very excited about this and the effort doesn't stop there. We will release full editing capabilities on OS X as an extension to this in the first half of 2008. We're currently undecided vis a vis the Linux support for editing. If you need Linux editing support and can't live without it (that means simply that you refuse to use OS X or Windows to edit your scenes), post a comment here and we'll take that as input for our product strategy.

Finally... I've been waiting forever for OS X support =)
Given that we released the Beta three weeks ago, that would give a whole new meaning to the word "forever" ;-)
Seriously, as I mentioned in a previous post, I'm a rabid Mac user myself and have been personally pushing for Mac support since I joined the company.
