As discussed in About Flash Lite content types in Getting Started with Flash Lite 1.x, Flash Lite is installed on a variety of devices. Each Flash Lite installation supports one or more application modes, or content types. For example, some devices use Flash Lite to enable screen savers or animated ring tones that are based on Flash. Other devices use Flash Lite to render Flash content that is embedded in mobile web pages.
The following table lists and describes all the Flash Lite content types available as of this writing. As discussed in Flash Lite 1.x availability in Getting Started with Flash Lite 1.x, most of the content types are only available in a specific geographic region or from specific mobile operators. The third column in the table provides the availability of each content type by region and mobile operator. For additional and up-to-date information about Flash Lite content type availability, see the Flash Enabled Mobile Device page at www.adobe.com/go/mobile_supported_devices.
