I constantly question Adobe's reasoning on this.  AIR is a great way to
present a platform...that sucks ass if you really want to do anything on
the client side.

Guess what?  If I want to break your sandbox, it's done.  No user should
download an app that they don't trust and no amount of your sandbox
would prevent me from breaking that if I were a cracker.  Give us
external access (dll, so, etc.).  Flash still has alot of potential.

Your marketers are getting in the way of your engineers.
