Gain's Hypermedia product for Sun

I saw a demo of a system developed by Gain Technology.  The
product is called Gain Momemtum.  I would probably best describe
it as a sophisticated Hypercard environment for Unix workstations
(e.g. SPARCs).  I've been told that Sun's Answerbook is built on
their product, and that they (Gain Tech) are now a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Sybase. I'm in the market for such a product, (user
interface prototyping, hypertext, multimedia support, running on a Sun).
However, their package price of about $150K is way out of my league.
Are there some similar packages already available (e.g. Hypercard like
capability for the Sun under X-windows)?  Anything for free?  Anything
under 10K/license?  I'm not interested in GUI builders, as I already
have those.  Has anyone worked with Gain's product, and can offer an
honest evaluation?

Please respond by email, as I have cross-posted.  I'll submit a summary
if there is interest.

Thanks in advance,

dan haug
