I'm already almost finished our revolutionary Litepost webmail basic prototype (alpha) client, getting ready to roll out desktop versions too. I am interested in 'inspired entrepeneurs,' investors, even philanthropists--not just developers. The only trouble with building good programs is good programmers are, inevitably, expensive. Inexpensive programmers: just plain lousy. If anyone wants to build an Apollo webmail/mail app/client with me, give me a call.

The reason: increased control, fast access to local files, differentiability in the app and reduced storage costs for photos that aren't used to make stuff. Replaces Flex in some cases.

Weighty Applets run only in the browser and need the JRE. The JRE is only around 80% (Flash Player is near 100%) and will probably slip from here since they are perpetually changing it, and you have to download the latest to get some to run. The biggest problem is that you have no access to resources outside the broswer. Java Web Start and Microsoft Smart Clients are the only things available now that are even from the same planet as Apollo and believe me, Web Start has problems. You need the latest JRE or else, and while it is supposed to automatically go and get the latest if it needs it, this all becomes very quickly a versioning mess that Apollo will not subject the visitor to. Smart Clients? Well...anything other than the proper IE and IIS will cause SOMETHING to go wrong. Java really had the right idea with Web Start, but if you ask me, they're blowing it right now. Even their Notepad demo is an embarrasment - just installed the very latest JRE and it STILL complained the JRE was wrong and couldn't run - was supposed to be some beta JRE just to see the demo. Ugh. How in the World are you going to handle I/O from an Applet? Apollo is much more than that, so don't look at it as some more presentation stuff or HTTP go between.

I see the biggest drawback is not running inside the browser. Using 2 seperate clients to access Web applications and Desktop RIA does not sound right. I beleive Desktop RIA applications is the way to go. More on my blog http://pullur.wordpress.com/. Soon we are launching a Desktop platform that will enable J2EE/AJAX/Flash developers write Desktop-Web integrated apps. Vijay Apollo is a good concept to mix Flash and HTML together well.

In my opinion the browser is the only application a user needs to start when using web apps. You can not tell the users to open a browser and if no connection is available to open the program via Apollo. Apollo and it's functionality needs to be integrated in the browser. In my opinion browsers are still very simple and can do little things, there is a lot of room for improvements. I think Apollo is a good idea but the way it works (as a separate exec) is not.
