Matthew Millar — Director of Mobile and Devices EMEA, Adobe
- generations of Adobe platforms: PostScript, PDF, Flash, AIR
- Now see two development areas: Client + Cloud, Device + ??
- Trying to balance between client & cloud — AIR
- Rich application on client, but taking advantage of the cloud
- Massive growth in Flash-enabled devices — expecting to surpass 1 billion next year
- But 1 billion nowhere near enough in mobile
- Only 20% of devices, compared to Nokia S40,S60 J2ME 40%
- Open Screen Project:
- use Flash & AIR as technology foundation
what a ridiculous screenshot! How high is the resolution on the phone on the right!
- Removed license restrictions & fees on use of SWF & FLV/F4V specs
- Other people could create their own Flash player
- Working to make Flash Player & AIR updateable over the air
- No use having old players out in the market
- Flash Lite player now open too
- available to developers as OTA download
- supports S60 and Windows Mobile
- Now beta, live in 2009
- See adobe.com/godistribute
- ARM & Adobe optimizing Flash Player 10 for ARM v6 & v7
- Full platform, not just Lite
- Q: What about connecting to hardware APIs, like SonyEricsson Capuchin?
- Adobe very supportive of Capuchin
- Will see other manufacturers doing same, e.g. Qualcomm exposing BREW to Flash
-
FlashCast Channels
- Project with Telenor in Sweden
- Expecting to launch commercially in Q1 next year, first in Sweden then in other Nordic territories
- use Flash & AIR as technology foundation
