StockQ is an Adobe AIR application which provides streaming stock quotes and manages multiple stock portfolios.
The feature set is light but the technology and app are quite cool. It uses local SQLite database bundled with Adobe AIR for user data persistence and UI is based on Flex controls and ActionScript. Flex DataGrid performs well and handles real-time stock updates seamlessly.
