Adobe has released a beta version of Adobe Air for mobile developers. Compatible with Android, BlackBerry, webOS and Windows Mobile, Adobe Air allows app developers to create web apps for mobile, bypassing the need to use an app distribution service. Naturally, Adobe Air is not available for the iPhone, but Adobe has confirmed that it is developing Adobe Packager that will bypass restrictions set by Apple. While Emperor Steve Jobs and his minions continue with their stubborn secluded ways, it is inevitable that the free market will begin to impose its ways upon them by force. Adobe Air will be based on Flash Player 10.1 and will allow app developers to use geolocation, multi-touch, accelerometers, gesture inputs, and screen orientation. Adobe plugged their new product by stating "With the Flash Platform further advancing on mobile devices, we enable developers and content publishers to deliver to any screen, so that consumers have open access to their favorite interactive media, content, and applications across platforms." Hear that Apple?
