Here's yet another review from Hayden, a noted Flash Sound guru, and who runs the Flash Mobile (aka Flash Lite) forum over at FlashKit.
Snippet:
” … Overall, I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Flash Lite mobile development. It offers great tips and serves as a useful reference for those already experienced with mobile development, and should help to smooth the learning curve for those new to Flash Lite development. For more details on the book, visit the web site, www.flashmobilebook.com.”

It's been more than a few months since our book (Foundation Flash Applications for Mobile Devices) arrived on shelves.
We came across a review on amazon for our book over at amazon. 4/5 stars.
Here is what one reader had to say:
"This book will take a flash developer a long way towards publishing applications on mobile phones. I didn't see anything on utilizing web services (something that is easy to do with flash lite 2.x) nor how to create .cab files (which was why I actually bought the book), but it covers just about everything else to a good level of working depth.
I wouldn't suggest this book to someone without any flash actionscript experience (or at least some object oriented programming experience) but you don't have to be a comp. sci. major either. Well written and not too witty (some programmer books can read like geek joke books) this book approaches the flash mobile development process from a practical hands on stance which works well with those who like to get their hands dirty while learning.
Strongly recommended reading for next gen phone app development in flash."
We'd love to see more feedback from the community.
Just an FYI, but in a couple weeks, Scott Janousek will be providing Flash Lite 2 training from June 5-8, 2007 in Boston @ the Adobe Boston Office (Newton).
This is authorized Adobe Flash Lite 2 training.
