This is a folllow up to last weeks post on Open Screen and the lack of interest from Apple.
I was watching Kevin Lynch’s presentation on the goals of Adobe for future deployments of AIR and he demonstrated the desired path for Adobe. He talked about the new Open Screen alliance and the goals of a unified flash player and a unified AIR runtime deployed across the many partners and devises.
Kevin specifically mentioned that Adobe would imagine a workflow where developers would build an application for a mobile devise running within the AIR runtime and be able to deploy the same application to a pc as well. The mockup images below show the Adobe media player running on a devise and then the same application running on a Windows desktop.

Hopefully, this will change with future versions of AIR.

If there is a level of motion that exceeds the sensitivity level, it will either take a quick snap shot and display on screen or if “Save pics to disk” is checked it will also save a copy to the user’s picture/iSpy directory. Have fun with it, I hold no responsibility for the pictures you capture.
