FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) November 10, 2011 --
Sad times and we are already running out of excuses when we came to know that it’s true, Adobe Systems is ending development of its Flash plug-ins for mobile browsers, the company confirmed today. Instead, Adobe will focus on HTML5 and, to a lesser extent, its AIR runtime environment. Adobe says it will work on tools that convert Flash content and apps to HTML5 and AIR versions for use on mobile, rather than continue to develop its mobile Flash Player.
Adobe has been working on mobile Flash for years, but shipped an Android version only a year ago and on both HP WebOS and the RIM BlackBerry PlayBook tablet this summer. Apple has adamantly refused to allow Flash on iOS over performance concerns (though it does allow AIR), and Flash has also not appeared in the BlackBerry Smartphone OS or in Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 despite Adobe's promises to do so. What’s more’ irritating is that many people are being sacked off; Adobe also announced on Tuesday that it will cut 750 jobs and reduce its investment in enterprise software as part of a broader plan to target the fast-growing markets for digital media and digital marketing products, the company said Tuesday. Adobe will provide details of the plan at a meeting for financial analysts in New York this morning, it said. Adobe also lowered its earnings outlook for the current quarter, in part to pay for the layoffs.
The enterprise changes are part of a restructuring plan intended to increase Adobe's focus on what it called the "exploding growth categories" of digital media and digital marketing. Adobe targets those markets with tools for content creation and distribution, and for measuring results from digital marketing campaigns. So all of those who tend to watch and stream a lot of YouTube would soon notice no flash support, and no more videos stream on their phones.
