I've seen announcements in the Flash Generator group, but I don't know

whether they've got contracts available as of this afternoon. (In tech

support we got our copies of the Generator design kit last Thursday.)


I haven't memorized the posts myself, but someone else on the team is

working on the listing. (They've learned to keep me away from organized

tasks. ;)


I'd anticipate that, if someone downloaded the trial of the Generator

Developers Studio and started developing templates with it, that there will

be a few early independents who offer the realtime serving of these dynamic

graphics by the time that project is ready. (Then again, some folks design

faster than others, so.... ;)


Summary: Yes, it takes a little bit for distribution, setup, contracts,

advertising. The Generator newsgroup seems to have the highest

concentration of folks with this interest right now, and I understand that

a list of ISPs offering graphics generation will be on the Macromedia

website "soon".
