For all followers of the trend for multi-touch systems you must read the article Multi-Touch Systems that I Have Known and Loved which provides extensive coverage of available multi-touch technology and some of the associated history.
I recently obtained a preview copy of Acrobat 3D which is currently (Apr 2) available from Adobe Labs
( http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/acrobat3d_version8/ ).
Adobe® Acrobat® 3D Version 8 software empowers CAD, CAM, and CAE application users to rapidly convert virtually any CAD file into highly compressed, more secure, ubiquitous PDF files that can be used by customers, suppliers, and co-workers to quickly and easily review and mark up 3D designs with free Adobe Reader® software. The same PDF can also be leveraged by manufacturers for downstream CAD, CAM or CAE based processes without having to buy expensive CAD translators
Incorporating technology acquired from TTF (Trade and Technologies France), Acrobat® 3D Version 8 can import data from a number of CAD systems and export the 3D content to PRC, an intelligent, high-compression format that can preserve precise data and a high-level of accuracy.
Supported 3D Formats

Other programs that came along with Acrobat 3D v8 include:
Acrobat 8 Distiller
Acrobat 3D Version 8 Toolkit
Acrobat LiveCycle Designer 8.0
Acrobat 3D, Sample Web Page

All in all a powerful collection of utilities that provide a user with all they need to create documentation associated with their design process.
…for Graphics File Management.
With the introduction of the new Right Hemisphere 5 visual communication and collaboration software, Right Hemisphere also announced it was awarded a key patent from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for technology that enables next-generation enterprise communications. The issued U.S. Patent No. 7,092,974 is for a “digital asset server and asset management system.” The invention outlines an advanced graphic file management system that allows users to control the complexity, flow, and quality of enterprise-wide graphic file management and usage.

Right Hemisphere’s graphic file management system allows for automated and dynamic repurposing of large amounts of digital graphic data or files. This includes maintenance, use and manipulation of the graphic data or files. The system is comprised of a server which can manipulate graphic files and established links to each graphic file, and a database on which the server stores the links. The server can create other formats of a particular file and allows for amendments to graphic files to be tracked.
