Adobe Apollo’s real name
As I was reading Ted Patrick’s post on Apollo in Flex3 I happened to notice that in the screenshots some of the text in the window title-bars had been smudged out.
Obviously this was done in order not to give away what the name of the final Apollo release will be (since Apollo is a codename).
This kinda got me wondering, what will the product-name be for the final release of Apollo? What do you think?
UPDATE: Apparently someone had a closer look at Ted’s screenshots and found an A:

This morning Adobe officially announced Apollo to be named AIR (Adobe Integrated Runtime), so much for Adobe Abracadabra:

Not sure, I always just figured they had picked the most appropriate file-extension still available..

Why did no one guess, that it would be called Adobe Integrated Runtime. I mean we used AIR files for how long?

Yup, Air it is. Ted made it a good guessing game. Viral marketing? ;D

Someone did some photochop sharpening and we have two letters, “A*R”, so my guess is the file format AIR.

Hang on, I think it’s either Adobe Ali Baba or Adobe Abracadabra.. Yes, I’m pretty confident about it.
