We've been using Java3D for a while here now. It's pretty easy to use, but there are still some problems to be worked out. Speed is ok, though it has slight occasional pauses for garbage collection. It's important to minimize the amount of garbage you generate to keep this to a minimum. I think the HotSpot VM will be sweet for hardcore 3D apps, but they're only targetting servers from what I've seen. If you don't need alot of speed, a software only renderer may make things alot easier (no need to have Java3D Properly installed). I've heard rumors of a 'Technical JRE' that might include Java3D, but it's only a rumor from a source that I don't remember. -- john
