Can’t save transparent PNG 24 in Fireworks?

24 bit PNG’s don’t have transparency. A 24 bit PNG has 3 channels – Red, Green, and Blue. In a 32 bit PNG you have 4 channels – Red, Green, Blue and Alpha, so the way to save a transparent PNG with high quality anti aliasing in Fireworks is to save it in 32 Bit mode.

But Photoshop doest it!
That’s because Photoshop says it saves in 24 bit when it’s actually saving as 32 bit.
