Yeah bloated code and/or code that was hard to modify would ruin this but from what it looks like it really isn't doing a lot of business logic, looks like it is mostly just the MXML and some simple actions.

I think this has potential for being a great tool, even for just being able to creating working comps for client review fairly quickly. You could even tweak things pretty easily during a client meeting.

Good point was brought up on AralBalkan about what happens if you update the PSD file. Might be too early in development to know but I would hope that with it running on PS layers, you could update the layer and it would update the "Thermo" interface, leaving all assigned actions etc. intact.

Can't wait for the release of this one and take it for a test drive.

Adobe has some really interesting stuff going on right now as far as software and technologies. I think by this time next year a lot of amazing stuff is going to come out of it in terms of integrating PDF, Flash, Video and a lot more. I'm envisioning Microsoft SharePoint on steroids. At least that is how it seems Adobe is positioning themselves at the moment.
