    It will be a little while longer, they are just annoucing the product right now. Just like 5, it may be a few days to a few weeks before it ships.

    It isn't called Flash 6 because it contains pretty much everything that Genertor had, which is why they don't sell it anymore. It isn't just an upgrade, it is a whole new thing.

    The Flash 6 Player is still only available as beta, it will be launched on the Macromedia website on the 15th March along with the Electronic download of Flash MX

    Red face Confused Part II

    Ok, I know there is Flash 6 and there will be Flash MX. Why come out with Flash 6 at all when there is MX? Seems like who would want only part of the pie?

    Flash 6 is Flash MX, the next release of the flash player will be named the Flash 6 Player(not the Flash MX Player). The Flash 6 Player is currently in beta.
