If you just want pictures (sounds like you
do), then ION is just the thing. If you want
interactivity in any sort of meaningful way
(e.g., you want something to rotate or change
as you move a slider, etc.), forget it. All
ION can do is send you pictures. It is not
capable of sending geometry of objects, etc.

Cheers,
