Loading ...Howdy all. I’ve been neglecting the blog for quite some time … I’m working on something newer and more useful, so stay tuned within the next couple weeks for it! Blogs are getting kind of passe, so I may be trying something a bit different …
Anyways … this intermediate post is meant to just let everyone know I didn’t “fall off the face of Earth” … just been doing quite a bit of traveling (San Francisco, Toronto), speaking, starting a company … plus my old hosting provider was starting to suck “majorly”, so I decided to move much of my content to a company that is much more reliable (and accommodating).
Anyways … the real reason of this post is to talk about a new book that’s in Japan … æ?ºå¸¯ã‚„PSPã?§Flashã‚’å‹•ã?‹ã?™
According to a source from Adobe arriving back from Japan, there now exists a recent Flash Mobile book from Japan which covers Flash Lite 1.1 and 2.x. Pretty sweet. I had heard last year this was being written …
Some of the content includes working with iRiver devices as well as the PSP. It was written by Shin Matsumura and started shipping last December.
According to John Koch (Adobe) here is some rough translation:
Make Flash contents for cell phones and PSP - Now Flash applications for cell phone
- Developing Flash contents for cell phones
- Docomo, Au, Softbank phones; PSP, IRiver U10,E10
- about Flash Lite 2.0
or here it is natively:
�帯やPSP�Flashを動��
�れ�ら���帯アプリ��能性を探る�
・�帯端末用Flashコンテンツ�開発
・æ?ºå¸¯3ã‚ャリアã€?PSPã€?iriver U10・E10
・Flash Lite 2.0対応
I’ll take John’s word that it’s not something nasty written in Japanese, as I have no clue what it says!
Here is the TOC translated using google (again, I take no responsibility for accuracy here):

Index
You can get it on amazon.co.jp if you want to start learning Japanese … otherwise, you’re better off reading our Flash Applications for Mobile Devices book in English.
If you don’t like English or Japanese, there’s always Pasi’s book in Finnish. Yes, Pasi contributed some Flash Lite content to a Flash book a while back too.
There are also a few books that contain small chapters or “snippets” of Flash Lite content (like Pasi’s), but nothing you couldn’t get by searching on the intenet .. Finally, in regards to learning Flash Lite …
We shouldn’t forget there is also Dale’s Total Training DVD on Flash Lite 2.x Application Development which is out now as well.
But I digress, but to the Japanese book …
If anyone has a copy and reads my blog from Japan, it’d be swell if you could please comment on it (if you have read it) … and NO, I don’t know who the “dude” in the picture is … looks to me to be a Greek, but I don’t have time to research … frankly, I don’t get symbolism of the cover … but I suppose it’s no better than having frogs and butterflies (too bad we didn’t have a hidden forest gnome … but I love the vivid colors and way it was laid out)!
