Sparkle is Out!!! well the Jan CTP ;)

That's right folks. The Jan CTP of the Expression Interactive Designer (ie. Sparkle) is available now.

For those who didn't make it to PDC'05, here's same links to Channel9 videos about EID.

The cools stuff about EID:
Avalon has an incredible animation engine, and with this tool that power is released. With the EID, the animation engine becomes more readily accessible and you can see the possiblities of this platform. Great timeline support available. No more editting angle brackets for me :)

Download it here.
