Contextual Apps

[Gregor Kiddie]

Anyone developing thoughts on Adobe's contextual apps direction?

They are pushing the "write once run anywhere" philosophy for
applications which can move seamlessly between Desktop to Mobile to TV.

Is this really the future? I've yet to be convinced that I can design an
application that will effectively work on a mobile device alongside a
much larger screen display of a desktop (and does TV fit in between
these, or off to the side?).

The white paper is of particular interest in what it suggests.
