Will Adobe Flash 11 feature a proper 3D rendering engine and API

I spoke to an Adobe sales guy last week who knew nothing of this.

Is it premature to think Flash 11 will feature 3D?

The next version of Flash, amidst growing competition from emerging 3D-in-the-browser technologies WebGL and O3D, will feature support for 3D graphics.

But don’t get too excited just yet — we’ll probably have to wait until October and the Adobe MAX 2010 conference before we find out more. There, on October 27th, a Flash player engineer will give a talk about “the next-generation 3D API coming in a future version of Flash Player.” How exciting is that?!
