Adobe even has confirmed anything yet. It is according to ZDNet, an official statement on the subject will follow tomorrow. The company wants to focus probably on Adobe Air, as well as on the seminal "standard" HTML5.

Android and BlackBerry

Nothing changes as first of all for the mobile world. Flash will also continue to determine the Internet. All Smartphone manufacturers who licensed have the source code of the software platform, may still offer supposedly so-called modified versions on request. These are no longer supported but Adobe. The Android and BlackBerry (PlayBook) smartphone platforms are affected. But users can breathe once. Adobe will also continue to offer support and critical bug fixes, as well as important security updates as well. What little surprises here: the desktop version is not affected by the development stop.

Victory for Apple

Nothing will change starting for the mobile world. But the step from Adobe is a hint in the future of the Internet. So Apple and Adobe fought for years because of the technology. Apple refused to eventually to offer Flash on its mobile platforms. Steve Jobs put rather on HTML5 and answered publicly: "Flash is nothing more than a CPU and battery eaters." The plans for the future of the group are what something negative encounters. So, Adobe wants to up to 700 people laid off and restructure so business - of digital media and marketing software is mentioned.
