if i own Adobe why would i use up my resources for a small market? while at the same time with same resources i can target a larger market segment resulting more profit.
thats the exact thinking of adobe may-be? or there really is something that adobe needs from Nokia to port the 10.1 because Nokia has that part locked down. (similar reason why no flasf for iPhone because of hardware and software lockdown?)


ps: i do not own Adobe or work for them.
