Flash On Phones

This week article concerns the growing use of a program called Flash Lite. It is a development program that exists for mobile phones that is in many ways like Flash 8. This Article focused on the Japanese users and their willingness to adapt to this new platform. The Japanese are far more about the use of their phones as personal statement rather then just for communication. On average the Japanese schoolgirl spends about $127.00 a month on downloaded content. That makes for a viable market for Flash Lite based applications. This opens the way for developers and freelance artists to tap into the mainstraem. Also it has become one of the new trends in Japan.
This is important because we can really create more user friendly cell interfaces. It also allows for the growth of an entirely new market. Here in the states we use our phone for pretty much just communication. However with the release of amazing new products such as the i-phone and other multi touch devices the idea of a personalized mobile device is becoming more appealing. The projected revenue of such development platforms is unimaginable.
In my opinion this is that it is nothing but a good and really cool thing. We as Americans are spending less and less time at home the need to bring our electronic lives with us is growing at a substantal rate. Its awfully hard to evaluate your stocks and investments and make changes to them when you are watching billy at his soccer practice. Think about it you could have a trading alert and it's sitting at home in your laptop on your desk. Oops you just missed out on 2% net gains. That is just one of many examples. The thing that makes Flash Lite the perfect candidate is that it conveys things in such a visual manner and is so interactive. The biggest thing that puts Flash Lite in the foreground is its ability to be personalized.
