The main alternative products of note are CanDo and Ultracard. I'll probably wait for version 2 of Ultracard. Your reviewers missed Thinker completely. It's a quite stable hypertext system, with extensions that allow the user of other media. Unlike cando/amigavision/ultracard, it _is not_ an authoring system. As far as I know, there's not a redistributable reader that supports the more recent options.
