Flash has become the de facto technology for creating graphically rich, interactive content for desktop computers. Adobe (formerly Macromedia) created Flash Lite, smaller version suited to the processing and memory capabilities of mobile devices and handheld multimedia computers. Additionally, functionality was introduced to allow Flash Lite content to take advantage of the unique communication features of mobile devices.
