Well, the wondering is over, at least for now. Apple has officially announced its plans for Shake, including a version 2.5 release for Mac OS X scheduled for August. And, to everybody's surprise, Apple will also release version 2.5 for Windows, Irix and Linux, though these versions will cost twice as much as the Mac version.
Latest release to include software real-time previews
Adobe has officially announced Premiere 6.5, the latest generation of the company's non-linear editing suite. Version 6.5 adds scads of new features, including software real-time previews and new titling functionality.

This is the first time Mental Ray with the Mental Ray GUI will ship for the Mac.
