Trevor,
Can you give us any idea what it will cost...and how much they will charge
for doing the ecommerce bit? Just curious. I've thought for some time it
would be easy to set up a server which works with PayPal to do all the
evaluation and purchase bit (I've already done this for ButtonGadget).
Something like that would enable all rev standalones to be purchased online.
As Ken mentioned they take the 20% cut. From what I have been told the Central 'browser' will be free.
Do you know if the new Flash Player will act like a regualar app? Can you
give it it's own filetypes and icons -- and double click a document type and
launch it with it's own application? Frankly, I'd be a bit surprised if it
can do all that.
I don't think they are making modifications to the actual player. Central will be an entirely different product.
Also, do you really think it feasible to develop full applications in Flash?
I've done a little with ActionScript and it seems like a lot of work for
doing something other than animations..just wondering.
Sorry to hear about the SSL need you have. I too hope MC or RR will address
after 2.0.
You can do some sophisticated things with ActionScript. With Flash MX AS has become pretty powerful. The problem is that the Flash IDE is in no way suited for creating applications. There are still many things that Flash lacks such as file browsers, etc. The available tools which provide this to Flash are Windows only and aren't part of the actual Flash authoring environment. I am really looking forward to SSL as well because I don't enjoy designing my web apps in browsers. I would much prefer to author them in Rev.
