Developed on Adobe's AIR platform, the Allurent Desktop Connection prototype was unveiled at Adobe's North American MAX conference on October 1, 2007. Built in cooperation with Anthropologie, the women's apparel and home goods retailer, Allurent Desktop Connection provides a premium desktop shopping experience for valued customers.
Looks dope. Anyone have experience using this yet?

What Allurent Labs have done is nothing special.
Adobe AIR is special though - it's good little platform, and if you know HTML and JS, you can probably develop for it ;)
That uses it.
Infinite uses.

I still can't figure out what pownce does that IM's don't beside looking good, being developed by a developer girl who's looking good and promoted by famous bloggers

JS background is helpful... but this is A.S....
... I'd advised getting on the A.S. 3.0 Bandwagon if you wish to begin developing in the AIR enviro...
... there's a number of classes proprietary to Flash that you may skip over if you're solely relying on your JS skillz. :)

Did you just say 'dope'?

Flash has yet to prove it's real-world use to me. I'm not touching AS with a barge pole.

I guess you've yet to goto youTube for that 'real world' experience of Flash...... if you realized the packaged power of Flash... you'd eat your words... :)

excuse me... scrap the term 'Flash' and insert 'Actionscript'...
... actionscript is used outside of Flash... *cough cough... like in Adobe Air for example...

I've been doing web development for 8 years, and aside from the designery wank posted on here, it's of no benefit to anyone.
I'll give it FLV though. That's about the most useful thing that's been developed.
And if youTube is reflective of the real world, I'm killing myself.

moth... I'm hoping you'll give A.S. another shot...
... A.S. 3.0 is in line w/ECMA Script (v.4) which is what JS too is inline with...
... it's all in how you use it of course. :) But A.S. has stepped up! Don't discount it so fast... you don't have to make shit go 'bleep' 'bloop' just because it's Flash!!... Flash is super-powerful!!!... and 'everyone' has the player.
Get that Barge Pole out, young man!!

Here's something that bothers me about flash.
Why does a plain FLV file not play back in the flash player?
