I smell a rushed out product here so there's not a lot of hope for it having been fully optimised in the way flash has been for Windows (the video was using 8% CPU on my win7 system btw).
But at least they're actually fighting back with something other than cheap digs and made up facts and figures this time.
Maybe they fired the PR department and hired better programmers.
- mrj 17y agoRushed out? They've been working on it for at least a year, probably much longer. And they're not really introducing anything new, just a mobile port. If anything they're taking way, way too long. It makes no sense to harp on Apply when they haven't even been able to release on a willing platform yet.
- dirtbox 17y agoSure. Their entire drive recently has been to prove to Apple and the rest of the world that they're worth keeping around. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if this release has been pushed forward by a few months.
- CoreDumpling 17y agoOn the one hand, I have to salute them for diversifying their offerings and broadening the reach of the Flash platform. Like it or not, there is still a lot of Flash content that's actually worth having on mobile devices. On the other hand, I can't help but think that Adobe is sacrificing depth for breadth, and spreading their resources thin across all the areas where they are trying to compete. Considering how poorly Flash runs on Linux and OSX, I'm nervous about this devolving into yet another "write once, debug everywhere" nightmare.
