Adobe Using Flex to build there own Products

One of the subtle comments in the Q/A with the Flex team during 360Flex had to do with Adobe using Flex for internal application. They mentioned that about 15-20 internal projects are using Flex. Probably the most notable is the new online Photoshop application that was announced by the top exec’s of Adobe.

I think this is a big deal, not only from a developer stand point but from a platform standpoint. We’ll see more and more announcements (like Philo) of Adobe made applications/products using Flex and Apollo. And if you notice Adobe is hiring, and a slew of the job openings are for Flex developers.

Any one else, what do you think of Adobe creating their own products with their own technology?
