May be you have seen it,
may be you didn't...

I found this link : http://www.ptc.com/products/cocreate/

CoCreate looks like a "Dynamic Modeling" it will not record a history of actions like a parametric modeler but you can model in 3D by push/pulling, create assemblies, parts etc.
You can see it like Google sketchup on a lot of steroids :D (Sketchup is like paint compared)

I think this tool is great for some of the 3D modeling, where you don't need parametric relations between part, or need a history of items done on the part, just draw away, great for technical parts. it doesn't do V-Carving ;)

Export can be done in STL and VRML, it doesn't have build in CAM capabilities (at least not the PE version), you can create assemblies up to 60 parts.
