My phone is not supported by Flash Lite distributable player :(
Feb 17th
I was so curious to do some tests that I thought all windows mobile and symbian devices was supported… however, as I can see, only a small number of mobile phones are compatible with Flash Lite distributable player (23), the full list is here: http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Distributable_Player:Supported_Devices
I was able to compile a .cab file for my Samsung Omnia and then install and launch my test application, however an error message said me “Flash Lite is not available for this device”…. arrrggh!!! I’m going to buy a second hand Nokia N95 on Ebay, I’m too curious! :))
Adobe Flash Lite 3.1 Distributable Player for Windows Mobile and Symbian!
Feb 16th
Today Adobe has announced its last creature: Flash Lite distributable player for Windows Mobile and Symbian (the platforms I predicted). We can now use Adobe Mobile Packager to create standalone player for applications, without affecting the Flash Lite browser plug-in or pre-installed standalone player, if present into the device… so we can distribute executable swf files that user can open and use on their phone. Flash lite 3.1 now supports Flash player 9 features and security has been improved… however the bad and sad part is that it still doesn’t support Actionscript 3 :(
The software can be download from Adobe labs: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/distributableplayer.html
The official announce from Adobe is here: http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/pressroom/pressreleases/200902/021609FlashLiteDistr.html
Furthermore a big context has been launched today: the Flash Lite Developer Challenge http://www.flashlitedeveloperchallenge.com
with 100.000 $ in prizes!
I’m quite excited although my disappoint about the missing AS3 support and I’m going to learn more about this news and experimenting with my device… and maybe participate to the challenge :)
