The only progress I see is A-eon/AmigaKit founded development, and that is solely Radeon HD focused. And after a couple of *years*, this has (recently) resulted in drivers with 2D acceleration.

If by "recently" you mean "several years ago," then yes, Radeon HD drivers with full 2D support came "recently." Even full 2D acceleration for Radeon HD 7xxx series cards has been available for about 2 years.

Dumb question, but what are the benefits of 3D on an Amiga?  Faster window opening?  Better performance in the handful of games that support it?


It allows you to run 3D apps/games. Yes, this is mostly about games, but apps like Blender also need 3D drivers.
