>Hi,
>
>MathPlayer, our high-performance MathML display engine for Microsoft's
>Internet Explorer browser, is now available for free download at
>http://www.dessci.com/webmath/mathplayer.
>
>After a few months in private beta, MathPlayer is ready to go public. We
>call our current release of MathPlayer, "beta 3". We expect to announce the
>final release of MathPlayer 1.0 at the MathML Conference in Chicago, June
>28-30, 2002 (http://www.mathmlconference.org/2002). From now until that
>time, we encourage you to download MathPlayer and try it out. We look
>forward to your feedback.
>
>Together with Mozilla and its built-in MathML support, and the Universal
>MathML Style Sheet soon to be available at the W3C Math site
>(http://www.w3.org/Math), the availability of MathPlayer makes MathML a
>viable and useful vehicle for putting math on the web.
>
>Design Science is making MathPlayer available for free download (in exchange
>for an email address only) in order to help ensure the success of MathML in
>the marketplace. We also plan to offer MathPlayer as a licensable component
>for inclusion in web- and CDROM-based commercial products (e.g. distance
>learning systems, textbook supplementary software packages) and for
>situations in which it is desirable for it to be pre-installed (e.g. school
>computer labs without Internet access).
>
>Design Science also offers several products that aid in the creation of
>MathML content:
>
>WebEQ --- our collection of software tools for adding dynamic math to web
>pages, including our WebEQ Editor for authoring MathML and WebEQ Input
>Control for enabling math input in web pages.
>
>MathType --- the professional version of the Equation Editor that comes with
>Microsoft Office includes our MathPage technology for converting a Word
>document containing math to a web page with MathML.
>
>Visit our web site at http://www.dessci.com to learn more about these
>products. You can read the full text of our press release at
