Come to this session to learn the best techniques to create 2D Adobe Flash technology–based games for the consumer TV space. With the introduction of Adobe AIR for the digital home, game developers using Flash can now expand their work to yet another platform, while reusing the same code base and tools (Flash Professional CS5.5, Flash Builder 4.5.1, and so on). Paul Clancy, lead developer at PlayJam, will talk in depth about TV game types, screen constraints, input methods, best practices, publishing, and distribution. Don't miss the opportunity to take your games to the big screen.

Find out how Adobe Flash Builder 4.5 makes it easy for you to build mobile apps for a variety of devices using the same workflow you use to build web or desktop applications today. You can now build apps to run on the Apple iOS, Google Android, and BlackBerry QNX platforms. Walk through the basic steps required in Flash Builder 4.5 to create and run a simple mobile Flex project both on the desktop and on a device. Also learn about new mobile-specific functionality in the Flex 4.5 software development kit (SDK).

Join Adam Lehman, senior product manager for Flash Builder, for an overview of the recently released Adobe Flash Builder 4.5. Learn about the new mobile development capabilities of Flex as you walk through the new mobile development workflow in Flash Builder. Also, see why the 4.5 release wasn’t just about mobile development: This session will dive into the new code editing features of Flash Builder and explore some never-before-seen features of the next release.

Learn about little-known but very useful features of Flex.

Dive into the details with ESRI and the City of Boston to hear how they built and deployed a critical application across desktops and devices. The City of Boston needed an executive dashboard for the mayor to "see" the state of the city in situations such as snowstorms. It was originally intended to be web-based and displayed in City Hall; however, Adobe Flash Builder 4.5.1 and a good MVC pattern implementation have paved the way for iPad app development. This avant-garde approach has motivated city officials to evaluate how else they can apply the app.

Hear tips and tricks that will get your whole team working better together, just like Adobe Flash Builder and Adobe Flash Catalyst! Flash Catalyst CS5.5 offers a host of new features to help you design and prototype your Flex application. Flash Builder 4.5 now supports project roundtripping with Flash Catalyst, extending prototypes to seamlessly flow into your application development process. In this session, you'll learn how to replace dummy content with real data services, create animation on the timeline for use in Flash Builder, and structure large projects for success.
