R help - Jul 2008 - Problem with scatterplot3d example

I tried to run the following example from section 4.1.4 of the
"Scatterplot3d
-
an R package for Visualizing Multivariate Data" vignette and got an error
on
the part that plots the regression plane:
> library(scatterplot3d)
> data(trees)
> s3d <- scatterplot3d(trees, type = "h", color =
"blue",
+ angle = 55, scale.y = 0.7, pch = 16, main = "Adding
elements")
> my.lm <- lm(trees$Volume ~ trees$Girth + trees$Height)
> s3d$plain3d(my.lm)
Error: attempt to apply non-function
> s3d$points3d(seq(10, 20, 2), seq(85, 60, -5), seq(60, 10, -10),
+ col = "red", type = "h", pch = 8)

Any ideas on what I need to change in order to get the plane to plot?

Tom

You need to correct the spelling error:  you want plane3d, not plain3d.

(This typo is in the vignette; I'm surprised it didn't get caught 
automatically.)
