Mark has posted some stats on the uptake of Adobe Mobile Packager, with the main indicator being that installs have reached 100,000.
Coupled with an apparent increase in player downloads through the Adobe Version Checker that’s a part of the Flash Lite Distributable Player solution, things are trending in the right direction here.
The recording from my Adobe eSeminar from last week is now available online. “Creating and Packaging Flash Mobile Applications” is a walk-through of creating and testing apps in Flash CS4 Professional and Device Central CS4, and packaging those apps with Adobe Mobile Packager 1.1 – aimed at developers and designers who are new to mobile. Take a look at the Training section here on my blog for links to other recordings and resources.
This Wednesday I’ll be giving an online eSeminar for the Adobe AU office – “Create and Package Flash Mobile Applications“. It’s a general session aimed at giving Flash developers an understanding of mobile workflow with Adobe CS4 and the packaging and distribution capabilities of Adobe Mobile Packager 1.1
Wednesday 1st July, 2009 – 12-1pm Australian EDT (+10GMT).
