No idea what Apollo is about? Check out the Apollo Online Seminar on November 2nd @ 3pm EST. Register here for free. Here’s a bit of a summary for those who haven’t heard of Apollo:

Apollo is the code name for a cross-operating system runtime being developed by Adobe that allows developers to leverage their existing web development skills (Flash, Flex, HTML, JavaScript, Ajax) to build and deploy Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) to the desktop.

The Apollo runtime will be free (similar to the Flash Player and Adobe Reader).

You can leverage any existing IDE that you already use for Flash / Flex or HTML / JavaScript development (such as Flex Builder, Eclipse, vim, etc…). Apollo does not require a specific IDE. Adobe will be releasing a set of command line tools for Apollo that will make it easy for developers to do Apollo application packaging and development via their favorite IDE or editor. Basically, you can use anything that creates SWFs or HTML files.
