Flash Lite gathering pace
Having a chat with Alessandro this week about the recent spate of announcements from majot handset manufacturers regarding their adoption of the Flash Lite player. There have also been numerous reports of game developers working on Flash Lite versions of their products in anticipation of the seemingly imminent landslide of FL compatible phones and devices.
It certainly seems that the Flash Lite boat is finally setting sail, just as we all hoped it would. Sure, there are still various issues and arguments surrounding timings, implementations and restrictions on different devices, etc. But hey, at least it's getting out there right? Even just the "chatter" amongst industry people, even here in Australia, has gone up a notch ... it's getting very exciting!
There's some news brewing with Moket also that we're looking forward to hopefully releasing shortly, plus the webDU 2006 conference in only a couple of weeks ... it's all happening folks.

Ciao Dale,
it's just too cool to be on the edge of a technology in the mass market !
Hey good luck for the conference and presentation !
Alessandro
I'm glad you're excited at the trend, but me, I'm still waiting eagerly for some of the larger deals to get finalized and announced.
These embedded-mobile deals involve more dependencies than most other software deals -- Adobe and our development cycles, carriers and their marketing cycles, manufacturers and their production cycles -- all the pieces have to line up carefully. These days it feels like we're in the last hour of a 13-hour planeflight, and I really want to get out and stretch my legs in a new, exciting place.... ;-)
Yeah I imagine that there are several bigger-picture deals that are still in progress ... as I've always said, the mobile beast is so different to the web - so many more issues, dependancies, involved parties ...
Still, from what we can see from the outside at the moment, it's looking pretty cool :)
... game developers ... doesn't Adobe own a mobile game company now. :)
