Flash 5 available at MyCasio for Casio devices
http://www.mycasio.com
If you use a Casio E-200, BE-300, E-115, E125 or an EM-500, you can now get the Macromedia Flash 5 player for your PDA. If you are interested in creating flash content for Pocket PC's, there are two books you should check out. Flash Gear by Jon Warren Lentz & Ian Chia and Flash Enabled by Phillip Torrone and friends. Both of these are affiliate links.
Thanks to pt and Ian Chia for the information. (No shameless self promotion here folks) ;-)

Flash 5 Available For PocketPC 2002
I just went to the Macromedia site and found that Flash 5 for the PocketPC 2002 OS is available for downloading.
You can get it here.

You are correct (unfortunately)
I went so far as to download AND start the install (it wouldn't have been the first time that someone used an old EXE name for a new version install). It was only then that I saw the "Macromedia Flash Player 4 for PocketPC" appear. 8O
So much for "honesty in advertising"...

I just love it when things like that happen! :x Anyway bring on Flash 5, this is the release that should support ActionScript for the Pocket PC. This should allow some very cool stuff for designer/developers like me. Can't wait for the iPAQ version.

At PPCNY, it was hinted that the Casio version would work for other 2002 devices since they all run on ARM processors. There was no mention of a Flash 5 release for other devices. Unfortunately, when I tried to install this on my ipaq, I ended up with an "Installation Failed" message.

Edit it!
You could try to edit the Casio version...I'm sure there's just a line or two that codes it specifically to look for a Casio-only thing. Probably can be removed...

Can somebody answer some questions I have about Flash. I thought Flash was just an animation program. How is it used to make these neat apps, such as calculators and games? Does Macromedia'sFlash Director have built-in programming modules, or do software developers incorporate Flash graphics within their code? Has Flash become a separate programming language? I'm interested in learning a programming language for a hobby. Do I need to know C/C++, VBasic, or Java to use Flash?
