Disabling AIR transparency does work as well, either way. To be honest, Pownce's desktop version is a nice looking AIR app, but it doesn't have enough functionality to actually replace the web-based front-end. I don't think I'll be using it until I can at least add friends or reply to posts with it. Glad we have a decent temporary solution until Adobe can patch it to play properly with Intellipoint.
