With Google’s mysterious event happening today, we have all been impatiently waiting to find out what is coming from our dear friends. I have read many speculations of what they will be unveiling, the most plausible in my opinion is Adobe Flash applications. It makes a lot of sense now that the Froyo is officially launched and moving towards more devices.
On a serious note though. How can you not love this Adobe AIR Flash application build by Christopher Caleb. An authentic X-Wing targeting system from star wars as your GPS. Of course, you lose all the frills like POI and an actual map, but hey, it does look cool and still counts down to your destination. The developers even added in R2-D2 sounds and authentic Rebel Alliance chatter.
