we've been using Pro Essentials graph (gigasoft.com) but it doesn't play nicely with delphi so it's been causing problems.
we need to display waveforms and bar graphs (not at the same time). the waveforms could have thousands of points. we need something pretty full-featured that's a "living" product.
our app is a native win32 delphi 2009 app.
thank you for your suggestions!
Try TeeChart

how about aggpas ?
I'd try out the LMD ChartPack. LMD has been making native Delphi products for years - if they handle your scenario, they will probably work quite well.
Some wave forms and bar graphics should both be able to be done with that.
Try this link. It has many components listed just for Delphi.
Try our RMChart.
Not native Delphi component but a freeware one and I have been using it in many of my apps.

I need a control which can display thumbnails similar as seen on the attached image.
It should support:
virtual mode
handle up to 50.000 images
thumbnail groups
scaling
work with Delphi XE3.
If such control does not yet exist I would have to create one from scratch. What is the best strategy for developing a control like this?
See an example of what it should look like
RMKlever has a series of blog-posts and sample code here. that can emulate a wide variety of things, but you would have to make code modifications yourself if you're particular about your desired format.
I believe the control is one of his own called rkView. The demos may require a lot of work to get them working for you, I found working with his stuff was difficult to get started with due to lack of documentation and samples but I eventually figured it all out.

I have a question, I was wondering if it is professional to use jQuery mobile for a iPhone app? I mean, i just needed to create photo galleries and i used jQuery mobile, and then created a webview for it.
Is it OK to create an iPhone app this way? Or is it not professional? Thanks!
Everyone will have an opinion about whether it is professional or not... it all depends on how you deliver your final product.
If your app looks polished, performs well and adheres to the HIG guidelines, then yes, it could be acceptable.
If you however throw something together which looks bad, performs poorly and doesn't function, then don't bother. You'd likely not make it past the approval process.
Take a look at: http://www.jqmgallery.com/. Lots of people have used jQuery Mobile to produce really slick looking apps.
Ask the basic questions -
Can I maintain it easily
Can someone else maintain it easily
Does it work with my SCM
Does it meet the requirements - fast enough, no crashing, etc.
It's professional, as long as you use best practices, and write decent scripts.

I was wondering if anyone knew the best way to create interactive books for the iPad (such as the Alice in Wonderland and Dr. Seuss books currently available in the App Store)? I am looking at using Cocos2D which seems like it could be a good option. Thanks in advance!
If you want an intermediate solution (i.e. more than epub but less than cocos2d), try http://bakerframework.com/ It is an HTML5 ebook framework. The "book" portion is developed in HTML5 and the project includes an XCode app to compile the HTML5 into an app that manages page turns, etc. Project is BSD license.
cocos2d is definitely doable, have a look here. You could also use core animation depending on how interactive you want the book to be.

I've been a fan of Turbopower Async Pro for years, now taken up on SourceForge and it works very well. However, it's complex and I've never really made use of its features other than the port component. I'm updating my code for D2009 etc and am tempted to move to something simpler since I have my own wrapper around it. There are lots of port components out there but are there any recommendations here? Thanks.
Lars Dybdahl recently blogged about the open source TComport component that's sprung back to life, and how Delphi 2007 and 2009 support have been added.
Lars's blog: http://compaspascal.blogspot.com/2008/11/delphi-bigger-than-c-tcomport-history.html
TComport home on SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/comport/
Also take a look at SynaSer (towards the bottom of that page). I have used his TCP/IP library for quite some time now and have found it extremely easy to use and extend and would expect his serial comms library to be similar.
Is anything in Delphi really future-proof? Stick with open-source anyway - If it's on Sourceforge at least you have the source, and it won't vanish if the company that makes it goes out of the Delphi software business.
Use whatever works for you. If Turbopower Async Pro (duh, what a name) works then don’t change it. :)

I think the best part of flash is the possibility to create not squared user interfaces, so I like the idea to create desktop apps using flash. I know AIR is for that but it doesn't allow real access to OperatingSystem apis and dlls and the commercial options are kind of difficult to customize.
You can try ScreenweaverHX:
http://haxe.org/com/libs/swhx
It's the Haxe-based successor of the old Screenweaver. However, it's not as simple as the old version used to be. Most likely you need to take a look to the basics of Haxe and Neko, the 2 technologies it's based on.
There's another project on top of SWHX that it's called HippoHX. It aims to "complete" SWHX providing that extra functionality you might miss (simple ActionScript APIs and a GUI). However, it's in its early stages:
http://hippohx.com
DISCLAIMER: I'm the owner of HippoHX, so my point is obviously biased.
As far as I know SWHX is the only Open Source alternative at this point.
Try flajector. it's powerfull converter from flash to exe. You can to develop your application using AIR. And then you can convert it into desktop application .exe
