Adobe ’s launching AIR , its cross - platform runtime , for smartphones . Why ’s that a bounteous mass ? It theoretically entail developers can spell an app once , and it ’ll work on gross ton of OSes — at least any that support AIR . Oh , and the iPhone .
Android ’s the first to get AIR , but WebOS , BlackBerrry and Windows Mobile are slate to get it too . And rememberAdobe ’s initiative to push Flash appsonto the App Store for the iPhone ? Apps developed for that will work just fine in AIR on other telephone set , let Adobe have their iPhone cake and eat it too .

I visualize an early build of it run on a Droid and Nexus One , where we mess with a couple of apps , like one streaming live video from a computer , and it ’s pretty impressive stuff , with multitouch and unaired - to - native functioning in some instances . If AIR succeeds the means Adobe hop , it ’ll be what Java once promised to be , a way to save once for gobs of platforms . That ’s a not - unimportant - sized “ if ” though . [ Adobe ]
