Andre has posted his very comprehensive review of Adobe Creative Suite 5 Master Collection. Here is an excerpt:
Adobe is introducing CS5 at a very crucial time in the Company’s history. The Internet is not just about desktop’s, laptops and Netbooks, but powerful mobile devices called Smart Phones which have changed the way we engage with computers. Flash has become a guiding light for bringing flexibility to how content developers effectively create, share, manage and secure various forms of media, whether it’s an entertaining game, movie preview or a web based application. Flash CS5 will help developers seamlessly bring these traditional experiences to a mobile paradigm that will provide a consistent experience for both developers and end users regardless of the device or mobile operating system. Apple, a company Adobe has consistently provided creative solutions for since the 1980’s is now drawing a line insisting that their popular Smartphone device, the iPhone is not welcoming of Flash, not now, not ever. Google and other industry heavy weights though are taking the safer bet by supporting Adobe Flash Player 10.1 on their latest mobile operating system platforms. A recent demo of Flash on a Google Nexus One device impressed me so much that I immediately realized that lack of Flash on the iPhone is a big missing piece of the puzzle in Apples neck of the woods.
