I'm not sure I'd expect Poser to be anywhere near along the lines of any of those achievements any time soon. ;-)

Smith Micro deserves compliments for finally beginning to bring Poser into the modern ages with its new developments, but even so, these new features are features all the other 3D apps have had for many years now.

Besides, I think Poser Pro can already generate HDRIs. I think it can, but haven't tried it myself, and assuming that's correct, I imagine Poser Pro 2010 will have it too.
