Just as expected, Apple has updated its Pro video software at this year's NAB conference. Production Studio has become Final Cut Studio. Not only do we have new versions of Final Cut Pro, DVD Studio Pro, Soundtrack (now Pro as well) and Motion, but Shake 4 made its debut too.
MacCentral has a write up on the new features in Final Cut Studio and Shake 4.
I guess you could say that Apple went to Vegas in style this year. But NAB has been known for the venue to show off Final Cut Pro.
All the new features seem pretty standard fare. The addition of Logic Pro features in Soundtrack Pro is an interesting choice. DVD Studio Pro's technical specifications for HD playback requires version 10.4.1 of OS X is also peculiar. This leads me to believe they are adding HD DVD playback in the first dot rev of 10.4.

I checked today, and that same tech specs page now says "Mac OS X v10.4 or later" without the .1 after 10.4. Hmmmm.
