Adobe Announces Video Support for Flash Lite
"At the 3GSM World Congress, Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq: ADBE) today announced that support for video will be integrated in the next generation of Adobe� Flash Lite� software, Adobe's award-winning Flash� Player runtime specifically designed for mobile phones. Flash Lite 3, expected to be available in the first half of 2007, will bring the Adobe Flash Player video format from the desktop to mobile phones and devices, enabling operators, handset manufacturers and developers alike to deliver more compelling and engaging experiences to mobile users. The release will be a landmark addition to Adobe's family of video technologies that includes Adobe Production Studio for professional video editing, Marcomedia Flash 8 from Adobe for video encoding, and Adobe Flash Media Server for video distribution. Adobe's Emmy award winning Flash technology is profoundly impacting the way video is distributed over the Internet. Today, television shows like Lost, Desperate Housewives, Grey�s Anatomy and Friday Night Lights are being delivered online through FLV, the leading Adobe Flash Player video format, while the technology also powers the video capabilities of social networking sites such as YouTube and MySpace."
Flash Lite 3.0 is scheduled to hit us within the next few months. Anyone looking forward to its video support?

This is going to be fantastic as devices evolve. Flash is a full-blown multimedia development and application development tool, as well as a tool for making those annoying banner ads we all hate! This is great news for business and consumer applciations, and I am very pleased to hear about it!

sooo, youtube via WM?
I hate to be dense, but is this finally the announcement that means Windows Mobile will be YouTube (and etc) capable? Even if so, it sounds like this will only be available through indirect (carrier, mfg.'r) channels, right?
