I have a beta version of the data visualizer and a copy of apE 2.0.  The part I
like about the data visualizer is that it is a small and simple tool and can
probably accomplish a least 80% of the 3D visualization stuff I need to do on
a regular basis (isosurfaces, particle traces, cutting planes, geometry).  
Obviously its not a mature product so new idioms will be added, but it is
unlikely that it will ever do all of the whizz-bang stuff that apE
and AVS can do since it is not user extensible or programmable.
