Slightly used PB developer on the street

First mistake:

I thought I had a sunset job, i.e., a comfy position with a stable company that I could hold on to until retirement age (5 years to go).

Second Mistake:

Not learning anything but PowerBuilder.

The inevitable happened:

'Stable' company's parent sold to another investment firm. Firm didn't want the satellite divisions (us and another). Satellite divisions sold to a competitor. We find out tomorrow by meeting with new company's HR if we have employment and for how long.

So... what's the PB field like out there? Still a lot of contract positions?
