Nokia Developers just went live with my interview about Nokia development, Flash Lite and 10x10 Mobile. Thanks to Alessandro for the opportunity! Take a look.
Giorgio, Alessandro and me worked toghether to bring new life and energy in one of the oldest community related to mobile in Italy (mobile.actionscript.it). The result is MobileRevamp.org.
The aim of this community is to share as much as possible information related to the mobile design and development using all the social networks and the new capabilities of the NET to make easier find updated contents and to create a deep feeling of connection between developers.
MobileRevamp.org is proudly part of the Adobe User Groups program and of the Java User Groups program. Follow us and partecipate to the discussion!
(via Alessandro) - The Forum Nokia Online Flash Lite Packager is back LIVE! This is a great news for Flash mobile developers since it proves that Nokia's interest for Flash technologies is still high.
The Forum Nokia Online Flash Lite Packager provides Flash developers with a simple and convenient way to package Flash Lite applications into SIS files for installation on Nokia S60 devices. By packaging Flash Lite content in this way, the application is installed as though it is a native Symbian application. The user can then run the application from an icon in the device's Applications menu. In addition, the packager will sign the SIS file with a developer's Symbian Publisher ID. Such signed files can then be Express Signed and submitted for publication in Ovi Store.
For more information, please read the Forum Nokia Online Flash Lite Packager Guide.
