* Flash Lite and Reader LE for Windows Mobile phones

"Adobe Systems Incorporated today announced that Microsoft has licensed Adobe Flash Lite software, Adobe's award-winning Flash Player runtime specifically designed for mobile devices, to enable web browsing of Flash Player compatible content within the Internet Explorer Mobile browser in future versions of Microsoft Windows Mobile phones. Microsoft has also licensed Adobe Reader LE software for viewing Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) documents including email attachments and web content. Both Adobe products will be made available to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) worldwide, who license Windows Mobile software," says an Adobe press release.This has been rumoured recently, and now it's confirmed. It would be interesting to know the dynamics of the negotiations, but I imagine Steve Jobs's Adobe-blocking strategy on the iPhone helped.
