A while ago, Adobe announced that Flash player 10.1 was coming to Google’s mobile OS Android. I was very happy at the moment: finally I could start building some nice mobile apps using Flex and AIR. A couple of weeks later however, Adobe said that they were not going to support “old devices” like my HTC Hero that’s only 6 months old now for performance reasons. So essentially, i’m fucked and need to buy a new phone again if I want to do some mobile development. Even if you just purchased the new HTC Legend…start crying right now, break your piggy bank and return to the store to buy a new phone: it won’t support Flash 10.1 and AIR.

If you know Flex, you’re probably fimiliar with AIR (Adobe Integrated Runtime) as well. When developing AIR applications, you will get your hands on some additional functionality that can be very useful. One of which is the ability to read / write files from the file system. Combining this functionality with serialization gives you the opportunity to store data without creating databases, SQL statements etc. Check the example.

The code for this is actually not big and generated with the connection wizard adobe provides within the Flex Builder.
