[X3D-Public] Acrobat 3D

Does anyone see Acrobat 3D http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat3d/ as a rival
to X3D?  I have yet to look at it in detail but it has a major advantage in
that there is single standard plugin which is trusted by nearly all
potential users.  VRML is on the list of supported formats,
http://www.adobe.com/manufacturing/resources/3dformats/, but X3D isn't.
In my opinion X3D suffers from the handicap that there isn't a single source
for a free X3D browser for all systems.  Support is scattered amongst
various platform licensed and free browsers.

Thanks,

Charles P. Lamb
