Motorola Changing Mobile Web Browsing Experience with Adobe Flash Platform
Adobe Flash Player 10.1 to bring visually immersive, uncompromised Web browsing to Motorola smartphone portfolio.
LAS VEGAS - CES – Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT) announced that it is working closely with Adobe to bring Adobe® Flash® Player 10.1 to Motorola’s smartphones as part of the Open Screen Project. Adobe has been working with the DROID by Motorola, released to consumers in November 2009, as it develops Flash Player 10.1 for the Android platform. Adobe Flash Player on Motorola smartphones will deliver uncompromised Web browsing – with its rich applications, games and video – to consumer’s fingertips, enabling them to be more connected and more mobile.
“Consumers demand that the same high-quality Web experience they know from the desktop port easily to their mobile experience as well,” said Sanjay Jha, co-CEO of Motorola and CEO of Motorola Mobile Devices. “Working with Adobe to bring rich Flash content to our smartphone portfolio will revolutionize how consumers experience the mobile Web by making it more vivid and interactive than ever before.”
“Flash is an integral part of the Web and delivers rich content, applications and videos to millions,” said David Wadhwani, vice president and general manager, Platform Business at Adobe. “By working with us to bring virtually all Flash content on the Web to its devices, Motorola is ensuring consumers have an uncompromised Web browsing experience no matter where they are.”
Adobe Flash Player 10.1 is the first consistent browser runtime release of the Open Screen Project. On Motorola smartphones, Adobe Flash Player will make the Web experience more compelling, interactive and visually immersive for users by delivering unique applications, content and videos across devices. As a participant of the Open Screen Project, Motorola will be deploying the full Flash Player broadly across the Android product portfolio. Motorola’s Android products will have Flash Player updates available once Adobe releases Flash Player 10.1, expected in the first half of 2010.
In addition, both Motorola and Adobe are strong supporters of the developer and content creator communities. By enabling Flash capabilities on Motorola smartphones, it opens up creativity and innovation for those who use Adobe’s industry leading Creative Suite tools.
