Adobe: Android is the Linux desktop

Adobe has announced that it will no longer be producing versions of Adobe AIR - or security updates - for desktop Linux; instead, they see Android as the future. Some more information can be found in this blog entry: "So, with Desktop Linux, we see a basically flat growth curve hovering around 1%. And since the release of AIR, we've seen only a 0.5% download share for desktop Linux. For Android and IOS we see substantial growth in share, and see predictions that indicate that in the Mobile OS market, the Android share could be 46%, with iOS at 16% (IDC March 2011)."
