[update: this post has been in the limbo for way too long, I wanted a way to embed the flash videos from Adobe.tv here, but it looks like there is none. I am publishing this post today, in hopes that the reader may find it interesting enough to actually try the links... BTW this here might relate to the silverlight 4 thingy as well! ]
I am yet to sift through all the Adobe MAX 2009 videos.
I find it really generous of Adobe to put all of these up. Even if most of it is marketing, they still share a few gems of information. Really worthwhile for guys like me, who end up being so busy there's little hope of attending an actual MAX event unless planned at least six months ahead of time.
I chanced upon the Adobe AIR 2.0 preview video: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/max-2009-develop/whats-coming-in-adobe-air-2-/
(I wish there was a way to embed flash videos from Adobe.tv into Wordpress...)
To me the most important ones are the support for USB (mass storage devices) and native apps (so you can now open a word document from within AIR). I am still a bit skep about the performance, but, I am sure this is going to improve over the new version too...
Check these videos out. Kinda nice. Kinda exciting.
Cheers.

[update:
1. there's a lot more videos on AIR2 in the complete video list, but I did like this one by Kevin Lynch as well: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/max-2009-develop/kevin-lynch-demos-adobe-air-2-features/
2. I prefer the adobe media player for working out all of it. nicer neater faster AIR based video playing...]

Bumped into you blog from facebook (through praveen's profile). Here's a small prototype on the Native process support in Adobe Air 2.0 that I was working on. Thought might interest you :) http://www.kleptomac.com/blog/smartdos-adobe-air-based-dos-console.htm
