Just in time for Christmas comes the release of sIFR 3, the javascript, flash, and css solution to outputting smoother text using flash. Previous versions of sIFR were frowned upon by most designers because they increased loading times on pages greatly, but this new beta has supposedly eliminated that by using on-demand loading to load the text - not loading the text after everything else which was the case prior to version three.
