BlackBerry maker Research In Motion (RIM) and Adobe Systems have expanded their technology collaboration by integrating their development APIs (application programming interfaces) for mobile content and document creation.
The BlackBerry developer platform will now be tightly alligned with the Adobe Flash Platform and Adobe Creative Suite, developers were told at this week's BlackBerry developer conference in San Francisco.
Jim Balsillie, Co-CEO at RIM, said, “We are working closely with Adobe to enable our developer communities to build rich content services and BlackBerry widgets that leverage the latest runtime environments, APIs and network services through Adobe’s industry leading design and development tools.”
Future versions of the Adobe Creative Suite, starting with Adobe Creative Suite 5, will provide the ability for designers to create optimised apps for the BlackBerry platform.
