After long waiting for Macromedia Flash Lite to be available to the public, Macromedia has announced version 1.1 for:

Series 60

• Nokia 3600, 3620, 3650, 3660, 6260, 6600, 6620, 6630, 6670, 7610, N-Gage, N-Gage QD
• Sendo X
• Siemens SX

UIQ

• Sony Ericssion P900, P910

As an alternative to J2ME MIDP applications I have to test out Flash Lite capabilities and integration with the Phones APIs. Anyone tried it out yet?

Update: After initial issues while trying to shop for Flash Lite on Macromedia’s Online Store (the System declined my Visa several times, reporting that the address I was submitting, wouldn’t match the banks information), the Macromedia Customer Service managed to send me the ".sis" installation file by Email. Thanks a lot to them for their fast and great support.

So now, I’ve finally Flash Lite 1.1 installed on my Nokia 6600 and downloaded one of the Flash Lite examples I could find. It turns out, that this "Traffic Cam Viewer" has recently won the Macromedia Flash Lite Contest. Here are the rest of the winning entries.

After waiting so long for this to happen, it’s time to getting things done and put myself on some idea implementations and some research on Flash Lite 1.1
