Macromedia Studio 8 on Monday too?

Its no secret anymore than everyone is expecting Macromedia to announced Flash 8 on Monday (8/8). But will they release Studio8 as well? I have seen a few blog posts about it, but ran across this article on CIO website tonight.

Macromedia marks release of Studio 8

Macromedia on Monday takes the wraps off Studio 8. The new suite includes enhancements to Dreamweaver and Fireworks, and now houses Contribute and FlashPaper, as well.

Studio 8 includes an upgraded Flash 8 development tool with new video workflow capabilities and an easier but more powerful UI, said Jim Guerard, vice president of product management and marketing at Macromedia. Flash 8 also brings enhanced graphic effects and animation, and the capability to more effectively author mobile content, he said.

Sounds like CIO let the cat out of the bag a bit early. Either way, I’ll have Flash8 or Studio8 on order as soon as they are announced.

  • Just remember, “announce” is not the same thing as “release”. Per earlier articles, we still have a few more weeks.
