Macromedia 又暗槓一些東西在FlashCast上

What is the FlashCast client?

The FlashCast client resides on mobile handsets, utilizing the Flash Lite runtime engine to display full-color images, render high-impact animations and play audio, all tied together by ActionScript, the powerful Flash scripting language. The client supports interactivity, enabling subscribers to easily navigate between channels and select channel specific preferences such as their location for weather reports or specific ticker symbols for stock watch lists.

The client software manages local storage, communicates with the FlashCast server for background content updates, and ensures the overall security of the channel distribution system. By caching channel data on the handset, the client presents an “always on” experience that is easy to explore and use. Even in areas with weak or no network connectivity, the subscriber experience with FlashCast is immediate and engaging.
