| Welcome to the Macromedia Mobile & Devices Update. We've created this newsletter to communicate news about our Macromedia Flash Lite and FlashCast products—and to highlight some great user scenarios and implementations. This year, we have seen the adoption of Flash by several major mobile operators and the inclusion of our technology on millions of handsets. With these successes in 2004, we look forward to exciting new opportunities in the coming months. We thank you for your ongoing support and hope you enjoy this first edition of the Mobile & Devices Update. | |||||
