A lot of great news was given with Flash Lite in MAX 2008 SF. Big and fast boys have wrote a lot of infos to web already. Look more detailed infos for example here:
- Mobile round-up (biskero)
- Flash Lite 3.1 distributable player announced (biskero)
- Adobe MAX 2008 Announcements for Mobile and Devices (scott)
Great thinks are happening with Flash and devices soon, I can't wait to get more devices in my hands (like tube). Oh one more thing - I took Adobe Flash Lite Mobile Developer exam and scored 100% 
Friday (yes today!) I will leave for San Francisco to attend Adobe MAX 2008. My program is to attend MAX Pre Conference Education Developer Day on Sunday and then in Max I will attend mostly in Adobe Flash Lite and Adobe Flex sessions.
Sorry - I haven't written any entries to my blog for a long time and reason for that is I have been really busy with teaching and making a mobile learning Flash Lite application for Mobiletools. The guys at Mobiletools specialise in integrating their mobile learning technology into existing eLearning systems, sort of mobilizing the learning experience.
Mobiletools is making the project with Nokia and Prewise Finland - the application utilizes Prewise's learning portal and contents and is being used by Nokia staff.
The application provides a full mobile learning and participation suite with media materials, interesting quizzes and a challenge to create your own content using a mobile device that supports Flash Lite technology. We're using KuneriLite to package the application to the end-users.
If you want to see how it works in action, try to reach me in MAX!
Great news for all Adobe Flash lite developers via Mark Doherty, "I’m really happy to bring you a new snapshot of the recent Strategy Analytics Flash Lite Forecast. Strategy Analytics have worked extremely hard to provide this data and this time I think its more accurate and detailed than ever."
"You can see in the above image that they are forecasting over 922 million devices to have shipped with Flash by the end of the year. In 2009 we will cross the 1 Billion device mark and should ship up to 1.5 Billion by the end of the year. What this shows is that in fact there will be 1 Billion devices in the install base toward the end of next year! Incredible...".
Of course the total numbers are much smaller here in Finland than it is in other Western European Countries, but if we proportion it to the population of Finland then 4/5 has Flash Lite enabled device
"Strategy Analytics also project the penetration of Flash Lite 3 across the install base. In the below image you can see the decline of Flash Lite 1.1 devices and Flash Lite 2.x and 3.x increasing globally."
Same is happening here in Finland too. Nice to see big increasing with Flash Lite 2.1 and 3.0.
Thanks Mark for sharing this information to community.
