well, that's all well and good saying it seems silly, but the internet
browsed from a desktop machine will rapidly become the minority of the
internet userbase.
That's a way off yet.
so then what? adobe has a browser plugin that's selling point is 99%
penetration. well they can't say that anymore seeing as they are abandoning
flash as a mobile platform. so it becomes 99% of desktop computers. not
exactly great if desktop users make up less than half of the target
audience...
For one platform they have no choice and for another platform they have
no choice for the most popular browser, so the fragmentation isn't down
to them.
The world doesn't stand still.

I see no reason why flash 11 would be the last player version. In fact,
the article is quite clear that Adobe does not mind it if other parties
were to port their players (providing they properly license it of
course), just that they will no longer do it themselves.
The indirectly linked to blog post also outright states that Adobe is
working on a new version of the Flash player.
So in short, Adobe just dropped their own port of the Flash player.
Only on mobile platforms..
I think their problem is that Apple and Windows Mobile IE wont have the
plugin, so it seems silly to invest in a mobile plugin technology that only
addresses part of the mobile space. It's different when it comes to air
deployment and the desktop.
