Adobe Flash Professional CS5 beta ...Denied!
Got a message from Adobe today about the sad news that they will not be doing their originally planned public beta for Flash Professional CS5. This is understandably due to the popularity of CS5 and that is because of CS5's ability to convert your actionScript Flash project into an iPhone app.
Here's the message they sent out to all who applied to all those who wanted to be a part of the beta:
"Please take note of this important update: Adobe will not be releasing a public beta of Adobe Flash Professional CS5 software. This is a change from the plan we announced in October at Adobe MAX 2009. Since that time, Adobe has seen an unprecedented amount of interest in Flash Professional CS5 and the included Packager for iPhone.
The decision not to release a public beta was made to ensure the earliest possible delivery of the final software to the large number of designers and developers interested in Flash Professional CS5 and the included Packager for iPhone.
For additional information about this announcement, please visit the Flash Platform blog.
The Flash Professional Team"
Oh well, guess it'll be best to just buy it :-/
