Adobe Releases Full Flash to Everyone but Apple

Flash is a disaster for slow internet connections like 2G and even 3G. It will hog bandwidth, slow you way down, and slow everyone else on the mobile net as it sucks the air out of the room!

Flash Player: Apple's Blind Spot?

Great posts here... thanks to all for your insight. Not mentioned is the other player in there trying to whore up the market - MSFT with Silverlight. Hopefully the lazy, unimaginative, .net development community will stall and this albatross will not take hold.

Adobe Forging Ahead with Flash for the iPhone

Hopefully Apple will keep Silverlight off the iphone - who needs MS crap software? All MS is trying to do is take another competitor (Adobe) out and continue their march to total world domination in every area...

Microsoft's License of Adobe Flash Lite for Mobile Devices is Good for Consumers

You are kidding right? Why in the world would Apple want Silverlight on the iPhone. In fact, why would anyone use Silverlight - another attempt by MS to put a competitor out of business by using their dominant market position. I wonder if MS, in their agreement with Adobe, put a clause in that Adobe can't port Flash Lite to the iPhone, a tactic they have used often in the past. (A fact well documented in the antitrust action against MS.) The marketplace should boycott Silverlight.

Apple Seeking a Reunion With Adobe?

"Webster" / "Have a Life" or whatever you're calling yourself today (having an identity crisis are you?) - again, you are clueless. You really should get a life contrary to your new name... more and more film makers are turning to Final Cut Pro, and not just on the indie side of the business. Also, many commercials and lots of tv programming. Next time, before you start slamming, slurring and spewing your BS, do some research - you do know how to google don't you? Films that have been edited in Final Cut Pro include Cold Mountain, Intolerable Cruelty and Francis Ford Coppola's most recent effort, Youth Without Youth, to name just a few.

Apple Seeking a Reunion With Adobe?

Webster - you have no idea what you are talking about. First, the apple apps you mention are not crap but are industry leaders in their respective areas. Major films and video work are being edited all over the world with Final Cut Pro, and the full Studio suite gets rave reviews. Further, Apples other apps like iLife and iWork are also fantastic products fitting specific needs for people who seek ease of use without all the bloat. These products compliment Adobe products, they are not replacements. So get a life and get your head out of your butt. As to the other posting from space (age), Adobe's products could use a good dose of updating with Apple's philosophy of ease of use and great integration - there is lots of room here for improvement no matter how mature you might think Adobe's products are.
