PaperPreview is an application that lets you preview *.ase and *.dae files with the revolutionary ActionScript 3 based Papervision3D engine right on your desktop.

Originally started by Ricardo Cabello (Mr doob.) now it evolves further and brings Papervision3D engine closer to developers and makes it even more fun to use.

USB storage in AIR

Monday, June 11th, 2007

A lot of people were asking for native USB storage detection inside Adobe AIR runtime. This would enable developers to build very cool applications that work with music, videos and photos from external devices.

I have built this proof-of-concept application to show that USB detection can be done fairly easily with the functions that are already inside AIR runtime. Check out the application here.

Source code is also available in the downloads section.

[UPDATE]:
Update to version 1.1 fixes issues with listRootDirectories on Mac OS X
