Flash Lite 3.0
It’s out and the verdict is mixed I guess. Flash Lite 3.0 runs better than the previous version resulting in better battery life for electronic gizmos such as the Sony Mylo 2. The ability to play Youtube video’s smoothly is a sure welcome to Mylo’s younger target market. Flash Lite 3.0 however works fine with versions 8.0 and below and will not function with Flash 9. We can only hope that Adobe builds an access point for mobile and electronic devices for an “auto load”. Instant updates for maximum compadibility.
As of now you will need to register for Flash Lite 3.0 here.
Sony Mylo
The product itself looks like a winner since you have the ability to use Skype, Yahoo, AIM, and Google talk, that’s pretty impressive for people that just need to chat away. If space is a concern, you can drop a 16GB memory card in there. Some people think that this device is a cell phone too, it’s not.

I’ve heard that Microsoft bought the license of Flash Lite and that it’s going to use it on their new mobile phone… something like the iPhone, not sure about it, but I’ll stay tuned.

I hope that we will have the full web functionality on mobile phones. I also heard that Sony Mylo will have lots of competitors soon, as the market grows and the technological capabilities get more variated.

I wonder how will it be when we will be able to have a fully future Sony Mylo in every pocket :D. It should be nice, with all the flash power I mean.

Flash Lite is a nice way that Adobe found to get some extra money of from big companies like sony and microsoft. I heard the news about microsoft’s move with the flash lite for their new mobile phone.

Now that we think about it a bit, Adobe does earn a lot from its campaign with the Lite version of Flash. I wonder how much time will it pass until there will be a new competitor to flash…
