The latest version of the JavaFX SDK has been released and is available for download from the JavaFX website. Looking at the release notes for the JavaFX 1.3.1 SDK it's mainly a bug fix release, although there is one new feature. The startup process now takes advantage of the customized progress indicators enhancement in Java 6 Update 21. This allows the developer to customize an application's startup and give the user more feedback on how long they have to wait.
There's an excellent article, JavaFX Application Startup Experience, that outlines how to take advantage of the startup enhancements. It does mean that you'll need to have Java 6 Update 21 installed.
The documentation for JavaFX 1.3.1 has also been updated to reflect changes in the JavaFX API as well as a CSS reference guide.
