How can I make A future of future into one future object?

Question

Env: Akka 2.1, scala version 2.10.M6, JDK 1.7,u5

Now is my problem: I have:

future1 = Futures.future(new Callable<Future<object>>(){...});
future2 = ? extends Object;
Future.sequence(future1, future2).onComplete(...)

now in first line, I have a future of Future of object, is there any way to convert it into a Future while not blocking my current thread?

Is there any method in akka? As far as I checked, I havn't found any yet... First time to have a post....Sry for bad format and organize... :~P
