Has anyone any comments about Apples recent admonishment (and censorship, if you will) of Flash on its iPhone & iPad? See NY Times article http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/30/technolo...lash&st=cse
Apple carries a pretty big stick and I was wondering if they could actually change the course of Flash. I wonder because I am considering the purchase of CS5 Web Premium when it is released later this month. I'am not ashamed to say that it will be a major investment for this hobbyist/freelancer at $1800.00 and well above my pay-grade's ability to fully utilize (if fully utilizing is even possible). So, any thoughts about Flash's future, or lack thereof? |

Just took a quick look at the advertizing, but it seems to be not only about creating Flash, but also an HTML and CSS editor, correct? I've never used such programs, except a couple of free ones for HTML during my very first year making web pages. I've never done any Flash, but I recall there's free software for that too. |

Yes, it is quite a package with a price to go with it, but I am tempted and the wife has given her approval (not that she wears the pants in family--let’ get that straight). It has a lot to offer: Dreamweaver, Flash Pro, Photoshop and more, all of which I am a stranger to. So I could stay entertained for some time to come or to put another way: not get anything done around the house for some time to come (she hasn't considered that I'm sure, ha!). I am playing with a 60 day trial of Flash Builder 4 and it seems like an excellent tool for building database applications. Something I could use at my real job, and maybe get the boss to share the cost. Perhaps the whole cost. I better not say that he may read this. I just noticed that they now have a 30 day trial of CS5 WP available. Wow, I’ll save that for the weekend. In 30 days I should know if I want to plop down $1800 for a toy (well it’s cheaper than a boat). And you know, the thing I like about Flash? It's just so darn flashy! |
