RE: FLASH: PDA/WAP and Flash

[.redstar.]

Jenn,


"I'm responsible for leading my company down the Wireless Web route with

Flash as a big component."


Then you've got a lot of excitement ahead. This is a great area to explore

right now. Don't expect much support and help because it's all a bit new.

General considerations based on current work :

Start thinking GPRS as a minimum if you want to include Flash. Don't bother

even thinking about Flash based content if GPRS is not your target.

Also don't forget you need Flash players client side and these are still a

bit rare. You can of course develop your own players. This is currently the

greatest restriction on developing Flash based content in this area.

Clearly identify why you need Flash based content and how it will enhance

your solution.

If you are going to use features like geo location then this is easy as

Flash is a natural answer for geolocation based apps.


A bit generic, I know, but it might help anyway.
