Flash Lite 3 to be Shipped on all Windows Mobile Devices

Yesterday, Bill from Adobe announced that Microsoft has licensed Flash Lite 3 and Reader LE for future Windows Mobile based devices. Flash Lite 3 will be pre-installed in the Internet Explorer Mobile browser on future Windows Mobile devices. Additionally, Reader LE will be pre-installed to allow consumers to open and view PDF documents while they’re away from their computer.

How many Windows Mobile devices
Recent information for Windows Mobile devices states that devices were 11 million shipped in 2007 and 20 million are expected in 2008. Also, according to Strategy Analytics, in 2007 1/3 of Windows Mobile devices shipped in North America (33%) with other regions representing other values: Western Europe (29%), APAC (20%) and the rest of the world (18%). Visit Microsoft to provide guidance on future handset shipments but you can visit their site to get a sense of the range of devices they have in market today. This deal is different than other licensing agreements Adobe has with OEMs. Because the license agreement is with Microsoft, it will be part of their Windows Mobile OS in the future meaning any OEM that will ship a Windows Mobile device will have Flash Lite 3 pre-installed. Today these OEMs include HTC, iMate, Samsung and others.

Nokia N96 Specs Released – Flash Lite 3.0 Pre-installed

Nokia Germany has posted the N96 specs. There are still no official images, but I imagine that it will be similar to the N95. The most notable visual changes will be the size; the N96 is slightly longer and wider, but .7 inches thinner than the N95. No official release date as of yet.

Chumby specs and pricing information emerges

ryan unger — Mon, 25 Jun 2007 18:27:39 +0000

Via engadget, the Chumby still has a few months to go until an official release (it will be available to “insiders” in August, and to the public this fall).

According to sources at engadget, “[T]he Chumby will ship for $179.99, and will come with a 350MHz ARM processor, 64MB of RAM, a built-in microphone, a built-in accelerometer, a cleaner case and internals than we’d seen from the pre-production model, all alongside the 320 x 240 3-inch screen, two USB ports, 2W speakers, and WiFi that we’d already seen.”

Let’s hope all goes well. By the way, it will come pre-installed with Flash Lite 3.
