There are a new Flash developers eSeminar,the Boston Adobe Mobile and Devices User Group is holding an eSeminar on Friday 13th November at 12 PM EST.
The speaker is Mark Doherty from Adobe, Flash Platform Evangelist Mobile and Devices. They will have the opportunity to know more information about Flash Mobile development opportunities on different platforms and new tools.
Topics:
- Flash on the iPhone
- Flash Player 10.1
- Distributable Player Next (with SWFPack.com)
- Device Central 3 sneak peek
On the FITC Mobile 2009, Mark Doherty gave a sneak peek. Flash Lite 4.0 will come.
Flash Lite 4.0 will support ActionScript 3, and it is a browser plugin (i.e. not standalone player). Same for Flash Player 10 for devices – a browser plugin (in his slide it was showing 10.1 in Device Central 3). AIR for mobile is the standalone player.
Flash Lite 4.0 is for slower, less powerful and memory-constraint devices, and Flash 10 is for more powerful devices, possibly with hardware graphics acceleration.
Mark also shown Device Central 3. It supports some hardware emulation such as accelerometer and geolocation. Custom device profiles can also be created easily in Device Central 3.

Adobe will release a beta version of Flash Player 10 (FP10) for smartphones. The release will come during October at Adobe MAX 2009. Now, with Flash 10 confirmed to come to Android developers will be able to use “real” Flash and large chunks of their web code for mobile, adding a new dimension to the use of Flash in mobile. On top of that Flash 10 is a quantum leap in performance. Flash Lite, simplified, is a poor version of Flash 8. Between Flash 8 and 10 there’s 3 years of development. Flash Lite has relatively poor graphical performance and it also poorly handles sound.
We are bringing Flash Player 10 to smartphone class devices to enable the latest web browsing experience. Multiple partners have already received early version of this release and we expect to release a beta version for developers at our Max conference in October. Google’s Android, Nokia’s Symbian OS, Windows Mobile and the new Palm Web OS will be the first devices to support web browsing with the new Flash player…
