Thank you Dianne
Thanks for the information on Flash. It gave me the direction I needed and
it is good to know where Flash and Android stand. In another year or two who
knows right?
I been studying the Lunar Lander example as far as the graphics and it looks
like a good way to go and I started a

Only a few phones have Flash at this point so, no, I would not suggest using
it.
Longer term...
Hi Chris,
Are you totally tied to wanting to do this using Flash or would you be fine
with doing it in native code. If so it sounds pretty easy to implement without
Flash.
Or is there a lot more ActionScript you need to interact with?

Oh no don't get that impression I am very much a coder. Degrees in Computer
Science. I have been writing Java and OO for years with weblogic and MDB's.
I am totally willing to do the coding for my application.
I just was looking for a straight forward way to create new animations for

Hi Mark,
Just a clarification, unless I'm worng. The HTC implementation is Flash 9. Not
Flash Lite.

That's possible. It reportedly uses ActionScript 2.0, which I
interpreted as meaning Flash Lite, but I hadn't considered the
possibility that they ported an older Flash to
Sena - I picked up a book on writing Flash content for mobile devices and
from I understand from the book is that FlashLite is based off of Flash 9.
They are essentially the same thing. Where anything written for Flash 9
(with actionscript 2) can be run in FlashLite. That is my current

It looks like I have to do a little more research between Flash 9 and
FlashLite. I will do that tonight. Thank you.
Unfortunately I have the Sprint HTC HERO which as I recently found out is
less open to find ROM updates. I will search for the Sense 2 that you
referred to. I might get
Chris, sounds OK to me. I suppose using the WebView is to bridge between
Flash and Java as you indicated and to allow instant application updates
(instead of requiring install of a rich interface application).
However, the plumbing looks awful, I think you'd agree. I've wondered if
Adobe hasn't

Really?

I can see your point on how Flash is tied to certain devices but I was
assuming that in 2010 more support from both the adobe and android camps
would be working
I kept reading about how one of the biggest news about eclair coming
out in 2010 is that support for Flash 10 (or ANY Flash for that
matter) will be built into it.
This does not appear to be the case for the fact that I download all
the latest source code for Eclair, built and installed Eclair

1. Eclair came out in 2009.
2. AFAIK, nowhere credible was it written that Eclair would have support
for
Thank you Mark for the clarification it is greatly appreciated.
With so many different sources on the internet it is somewhat difficult to
know what is actually available and what isn't.
One more question if you happen to know this. All I am simply trying to do
is create a WebView (using

Ok. It is becoming clear now.
Flash is licensed per device. So even though you have different devices all
running Android, only the ones that are licensed for Flash can implement it.
Is that correct?
I didn't mention that I do have an HTC Hero (as well as my android
development phone). It is

Yup!
It is conceivable that Adobe could make a downloadable Flash client for
Android, but I'm skeptical
Mark, Mr theSmith?
Thank you for your input. You pointed me in the right direction.
I wrote that guy that did that article but he is out of office until Jan
4th. I would like to compare notes with him and get my code working on my
HTC HERO to run my .swf file.
If I get mine working I'll post
