Pizza Hut hops onto the Adobe AIR bandwagon
Although some of the best-known Adobe AIR apps thus far are Twitter clients, you don't have to be a Twitter freak to get in on the action. In fact, you just have to be hungry for pizza. Pizza Hut has released a desktop pizza-ordering app , and it's built on AIR. If you thought AIR hadn't hit the mainstream yet, this might change your mind.Pizza Hut Shortcut is basically a slicker-looking, easier to use version of the familiar online ordering system. It has the current specials built in, so you might be able to skip the "Googling for coupons" phase of the order. We suspect this app is targeted at true pizza addicts, because you can still order almost as easily from the web interface. Also, the feature that saves your last order for easy reordering was a bit of a giveaway.

Just wondering - is there any viable competition against Adobe AIR? Or is Adobe AIR something unique on its own?

I *think* Silverlight could be considered a competitor, as could Google Gears -- depending on exactly what features you want to emulate. There's some overlap, but they don't do *exactly* the same things...
