Question

webos, blackberry, & others (development with Flash Pro)?

Adobe marketed CS5.5 as being able to deploy to webOS, BlackBerry OS & iPhone, iPod Touch, & iPad as well as pretty much any device (Android included) that would run AIR.  Why can't I find any documentation for this and why in the publish settings there seems to be only iOS AIR and Android AIR?  I do not wish to have upgraded to CS5.5 if it cannot deploy to all the devices that Adobe marketed the product for.

Any input is highly valued.

Sincerely,

As far as I know, Blackberry does not have it's own tab setting, so I assume you just use 'AIR'. I haven't ported my app to Blackberry yet, but there's a group for it on the main page of this AIR Forum.

iOS covers iphone, ipod and ipad - you can export for all 3 devices in one go.

Flash Pro doesn't have anything for PlayBook, but Flash Builder mobile AS3 projects do have PlayBook as an option.

Well that answers the question about Blackberry OS (at least as far as the Tablet is concerned) and I just happened to look at the www.adobe.com/devnet page which has some detailed information on it for that.

However what about the TouchPad (webOS) or Palm/HP Pre phones (webOS)?  I know HP has discontinued manufacturing them but I think the platform might still stay around and be licensed to other manufacturers, which is why I want to know more about that.  In fact there was a high demand for the TouchPad at one point recently so do you guys know if webOS is supported by Flash as Adobe had advertised?

Thanks,
