As I stated in a previous post, Captivate 4 is a must-have, monster upgrade for any Captivate user. It is the first Captivate release that can reasonably produce a complete elearning content package. Prior versions either forced users to live with the inadequate and ugly ‘menu builder’ or create their own custom packaging/wrapper. The new version has an aggregator feature, and much much more.

As for the Elearning Suite. I have not played with it other than a prerelease version where I took a quick peek and nothing made sense at the time, but that was early in the process. I am very interested in seeing the new learning interactions included in Flash CS4. I just upgraded the the CS4 Web Developer Edition at work so I’m kind of bummed at the timing of this release, as by now most serious elearning designers/developers have moved to CS4 and certainly won’t be able to expense another upgrade this soon. I guess instead of CS5 we’ll go with the Elearning Suite : )

The trial downloads are available on Adobe’s site. Have at em and let me know what you think of these new tools. I’m very interested in hearing how people leverage these new tools!
