Filemaker will be debuting its new version at MWSF.
As long as it has a modern architecture that allows Mac users to work with AB and iCal, I think it'll be okay.
Adopting Cocoa outright would be problematic for Filemaker, since it has a Windows version.
I'll be interested in seeing what kind of changes Filemaker 10 brings.
I really wish Bento would have just become an iWork component. They should have just included Bento and made the price $99. To me it would have been worth it and I wouldn't have to worry about two separate licenses.
Maybe I'll get lucky and we'll see a Vector based drawing program hit with some web enabled features.

iWork Extreme:
Keynote
Pages
Numbers
Bento
Easel (Drawing/Painting)
= Apple domination
I will have to try Easel.
Pages is ridiculously fast. It is like Word running on a Cray III.

Apple could do an iWork/Bento combo for say $99. A little off topic, but I think its time to bring filemaker back in house.

iWork now has serious competition, now that OpenOffice 3 has drawn IBM and Sun into the Mac office suite market.
I expect that the suite will get a newfangled drawing app, along with a bundle that includes Bento.
Hopefully Numbers will get an easy way to add/delete multiple rows, which is a serious and silly omission.
OpenOffice is just MS Office for free, still garbage.
