Faisal posted his first Flash Lite tips’n tricks in Nokia forum about how effectively one can use using gotoAndPlay & gotoAndStop as Flash Lite 1.1 supports pre-AS1 Flash 4 scripting syntax, the developer have to use tellTarget statement to access objects from deferent object.
This trick is quite useful when you have to do a quick goto action, but if you need to perform multiple actions, then you’re good to go with tellTarget.
Love to see more tips and tricks from Faisal 🙂

On2 Technologies announced that it has licensed its optimized TrueMotion(R) VP6(TM) video decoder software to Sony for use in its mylo communicator “COM-2” device.
The COM-2 uses On2’s TrueMotion VP6 decoder with Adobe(R) Flash(R) Lite 3 software, and provides access to videos posted on Flash-based web sites. When connected to a wi-fi hotspot, the mylo communicator can also upload and download content to and from the Web using the touch screen interface on its 3.5-inch high-resolution display. By integrating an optimized version of On2’s VP6 decoder, the mylo communicator users have the ability to enjoy web based video content, while on-the-go.

Adobe unveiled at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, a new client/server streaming media delivery platform with a new mobile profile built to Adobe’s server backend is designed to enable personalize-able user interfaces (UIs) that can be branded by operators and delivered over the air to subscriber phones.
The new mobile profile client software empowers mobile operators to monetize the UI “in the way that ringtones and wall papers are monetized,†says Anup Murarka, director of technical marketing for Adobe’s mobile and devices unit. “You can make the entire UI brandable and we think there is a revenue opportunity there. For operators, we also can elevate key data services to the top of the UI, so you don’t force users to drill down to discover hot new services.â€
It’s intresting that people are talking more about mobile experiences and “The evolution of mobile has changed with the iPhone†how it can be improve more or give a another great user experiences to mobile users. Intresting! 🙂
