And why not?
It seems Sun are being a bit foolish. Its probably quite obvious to many that 3D computing is going to become Big. I myself am having to playdown my 3D development to my clients - Many of whom have inquired about Java3D and its possible uses for Customer and Business interfaces, but I cant currently ensure its long term stability given Suns lack of commitment to it.
Sun have a prime opportunity to be at the forefront of this technology and should be so commited to Java3D that they plan to make it an standard part of their J2SE... say a future J3SE.......

The Java 3D part was a mis-quote. We don't have a big relaunch planned.

In the latest issue (Oct 2004) of PC GAMER magazine there is an article on page 34 discussing the future of JAVA in PC games. Chris Melissinos, Sun Mucrosystems' chief gaming officer, hopes to deflate a myth that Java doesn't perform as fast as C++, citing a Quake III demo written in Java. Also, there is mention that "Sun plans to launch a Java 3D update sometime next year, introducing the technology at the Game Developers Conference 2005."
... Not sure if that means Java3D as it says, or JOGL
