Couple days ago Adobe announced Creative Suite 5, the next evolution of Adobe products. It will be available on April 30th and will include many great features for mobile developers, from the iPhone packager in Flash CS5 to the new Device Central (including geolocation, HTML rendering, multitouch, accelerometer and many other powerful features).
This happens just after Apple unveiled both its iPhone OS 4.0 and its new iAd mobile advertising effort but most importantly excluding de-facto Flash developer to publish their iPhone packaged app on the Apple AppStore. Sad but true.
