All the Javafx software on http://www.idrsolutions.com/javafx is actually open source (the PDF to HTML5 convertor is a commercial product).

There will be some new entries this week as our Open Source PDFviewer plugins for Eclipse and IDEA will be updated this week with a PDF2JavaFX conversion option.

Good to see comercial vendors jumping in on Java FX. If not enough comercial interest picks in to help with complex widgets on UI side, very few companies would be really willing to use it for anything remotely complex. I don't see our main app getting build in JFX without anything easy to use like JIDE-like controls and the like (think a fast pivot control or a good table with grouping, aggregation and the like, all just draging it from a control palette)
