I'm pleased to finally announce the Flash Lite Pocket Guide for Flash on the Beach 2006. I had some problems embedding so many images and a large amount of XML parsing required for something like an event guide in Flash Lite 2, the RAM limitation is something you never totally get used to, but on the flip side I believe that limitations can lead to happiness. There are several tricks and tips required to get this working well, but after some effort here we have it:

SIS Installer (alternatively http://tinyurl.com/y9rsxn)

Zipped up SWF+XML

I'll be uploading the source for this. It is an AS2 Flash Lite 2 project so if you are a Flash Lite 1.1 developer/designer at present, you can see some of the benefits AS2 gives you when creating your mobile apps.

If you are at Flash on the Beach, please do come along to my session on Flash Lite 2 Tuesday at 4:30 in the Corn Exchange.

If you have trouble installing the file, you may like to take a look here.

Sweet app, worked perfectly on my Nokia 7610.

I'm not sure the sis contains the latest files. Towards the end, the names get out of sync.
