Adobe today announced Creative Suite 5.5 with an availability date of mid May.

I can only comment with any great depth on Flash Builder 4.5 and Flash Catalyst 5.5 as I have the privilege of being a member of the pre-release program, I continue to be impressed with the applications and development teams, the features and attention to detail in these releases is amazing. To give you a taste here is a list of some of the major new features in the suite, I recommend you also visit the Adobe site and get an in depth deep dive into the new versions. You can expect new videos on uibuzz.com covering the new features in the near future. Previous CS5 products that do not have a 5.5 update are not listed but are still available in the various editions of the suites.

Adobe has released a preview version of their new Flash ( FLA ) to HTML conversion tool code named ‘Wallaby’ on their Lab site, you can download and read about the application at this link.

So what is it?

Well it is an experimental technology Adobe’s talented engineers have been working on that will take your FLA files and convert them to HTML. Which is great if you need to support devices that do not utilize the Flash player. Now at the moment do not expect anything too amazing with the converter, it is a work in progress after all.

You can also get involved with the conversation via the discussion forum at this link on the Adobe site.
