Adobe GoLive Goes Wireless for Instant Delivery of Information to WAP and i-mode Devices 

Adobe Systems Incorporated has announced extensions to Adobe® GoLive 5.0 for two wireless formats, WML and i-mode. For Web developers, the extensions will allow them to design, deploy, and manage mobile dynamic Web sites.

Adobe partnered with Nokia, Razorfish, and i-mode developers to deliver its wireless software. Adobe GoLive 5.0 fully supports the WAP specification and enables wireless Web development with Nokia WAP servers and Nokia handsets. Razorfish developed a robust WML extension for the new version of GoLive.

The i-mode extension for GoLive 5.0 allows Web developers to create Compact Hyper Text Markup Language (cHTML) for NTT DoCoMo i-mode handset deployment.

The i-mode English version and WAP/WML modules will be available by the end of August from Adobe.com.

Mobileinfo Comments and Advisory: We like Adobe enable GoLive 5.0 wireless-enabled for WAP and I-mode devices. This opens up a lot of information to mobile devices. We do hope that Adobe files after this enablement, are as compact in size as one would expect instant information to be on these razor thin devices. Our concern emanates from the size of Adobe files then they do not carry images. We hope Razorfish made sure of that - no pun intended!
