I can see another 'Revolution' episode coming, with everyone expecting one name and getting another. It'll probably end up as 'Adobe Desktop Reader Extension Portal' or something :-) Apollo is generic enough to make a good code name, and a poor product name.

I don't know the latest, but we're still working on getting the name worked last I heard. Can't comment further because the legal process for getting a name that will work around the world is quite daunting.
