Adobe’s Connect Pro brings Flash to iPhone through back door

 Buzz itShare

Adobe’s Connect Pro Mobile River for the iPhone and iPod Touch is a solidness, free means to connect to Web conferences on the go, but what’s really interesting is that this is the first base app that has shoehorned Flash on the platform. The app was created in Flash Professional CS5 beta and uses Adobe’s Packager converter to work on the iPhone.

As for the app itself, it gives mobile workers the power to union Adobe Connect session over Wi-Fi or 3G. It includes video recording and blind-sharing capabilities, live text chatting and VoIP merging audio can be streamed to the handsets. The app is free but the Connect service costs businesses at least $45 a month.

I poked around with the app a little and it looked clean and functional, which is a good indicator of what can come from Adobe’s converter. Flash developers distillery greatly outnumber iPhone developers but we all know Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) chief executive officer Steve Jobs isn’t a big buff of Flash. The Packager should be a good workaround for some Flash content creators to get on this increasingly-important chopine.
