Mobile World Congress in Barcelona has been full of surprises and innovations, every top notch companies were out there showing off what’s under their sleeve. Adobe systems didn’t hold back either, this week they launched two new mobile applications, Flash Home and Flash Cast 2, designed for providers that want to enhance their products with rich mobile content.

operators_165x165 is a mobile application for creating customizable home screens and wallpapers using live data services. The combination gives users a more personalized mobile experience, said Adobe. For example, instead of an idle home screen, users would get instant access to more elaborate content branded by specific providers. In contrast, Flash Cast is a server push solution for mobile devices; version 2 has just been released. Unlike its predecessor, client 2.0 is more streamlined and faster; it also adapts its channels to your device better.

Adobe Flash Cast is already licensed by various carriers worldwide, including US Verizon Wireless, Japan’s NTT DoCoMo, and China’s Chunghwa Telecom. All three uses the application to provide rich media through their customized content portals.

Both of these top notch solutions are branched from The Adobe Mobile Platform, the new Flash platform for mobile devices. The Mobile Platform, which consists of a client and a server, is flexible and extensible and is designed to help deploy and manage compelling mobile data services, not to mention the underlying technology for Adobe’s mobile solutions for operators rather than clients who use the device. Adobe Mobile Client is a Flash client runtime optimized for a wide range of devices for hosting and managing the presentation of data services and data-enabled user interfaces (UIs).

Perhaps the biggest difference between Flash Lite (Flash Player for Smart Phones) and this new platform is portability. Adobe Mobile Client is highly portable and can be ported to a variety of leading open and closed operating systems.

According to Adobe, More than 450 million mobile devices shipped to date come enabled with Flash. That’s a huge number to dominate from any point of view.
