Adobe Buys Macromedia: Mobile Implications?

admacr1.gifAdobe just bought Macromedia for $3.4 billion…see our full coverage on paidContent.org. What are the implications of this deal for mobile platforms? Mobile document sharing? And of course, the effect on mobile flash platform?
RCR Wirless: As for Adobe, the company and other vendors offer technology to allow mobile phone users to view PDF files. Such capabilities are mainly available on high-end phones.
Russell Beattie: Honestly, with Adobe’s worldwide market presence they might be able to do a much better job than Macromedia has done so far to get Flash on the handsets (in the West). I can see a combined Flash/SVG player (Flash Lite 1.1?) from Adobe becoming a really viable platform.
