HTML 5 Game from gSkinner
Grant Skinner and his team have recently launched a tower defense game called Pirates Love Daisies. It's a project commissioned by Microsoft and is the first real HTML 5 / javascript project Grant's team has taken on. On his blog, Grant goes into a lot of detail about the process and the experience of working on a non-Flash project. Not only do you get to enjoy the wonderful results of their work in the form of a game, but you also get access to the open source Easel JS library that they created. Easel JS pulls many of it's ideas from the AS3 DisplayList API.

Will Flex standalone applications run on both the iPhone and iPad?
Yes. Adobe engineering is currently working on updating Flex, Flash Builder, and Adobe AIR to enable standalone, installed applications built with Flex to run on both the iPhone and iPad devices. Application performance and feature set are expected to be consistent across applications running on iOS, Android and Blackberry Tablet OS devices.
