Adobe dropping mobile Flash

We hear today that Adobe is dropping its future plans for mobile Flash. The company says:

'Our future work with Flash on mobile devices will be focused on enabling Flash developers to package native apps with Adobe AIR for all the major app stores. We will no longer adapt Flash Player for mobile devices to new browser, OS version or device configurations. Some of our source code licensees may opt to continue working on and releasing their own implementations. We will continue to support the current Android and PlayBook configurations with critical bug fixes and security updates.'

This announcement with plans to focus on HTML5 is due out shortly and we can be sure that up in heaven tonight there will be someone smiling.
