FlashBuilder for BlackBerry Playbook apps? I'm rather partial to Eclipse for all my development projects and I'm looking into getting familiar with the BlackBerry Playbook SDK. The Adobe AIR SDK and libraries are available for free, but the IDE is proprietary. I would think that there is an AIR SDK plugin whipped up for Eclipse, that I can also use to build and deploy an app to the Playbook simulator, but I don't know off the top of my head. Can I use a regular Eclipse plugin for ActionScript with playbook API's included and just deploy builds to the simulator? I took a quick look at a google search, but I figured I'd put the question out there to get some community appeal.
 
I recently found this on CNET. I don't know much about it.
It is free.
The editor's review is pretty good. It is supposed to be a Flash alternative. (And, I don't know much about Flash. I was just interested in trying this app since it was free and I wanted to know more about Flash development.)
