...I'd suggest wings3d or blender, but blender needs an extra python 
importer/exporter for 3ds (easy enough to find on the blender site;  
look for importer/exporter plugins/scripts)...I should also note that 
these programs only really do this on x86 platforms:  3ds files have 
byteswapping problems atm on ppc...but there should be native support 
in [model] very soon!
