See Device Central CS4 in Action

Come to the next UK Mobile and Devices event (21 Oct 2008) and see the all new Device Central CS4 in action! I’ll demonstrate my favorite new features and give you some tips and tricks that will help you get up and running in no time.

There will also be two great presentations by usTwo (they do stunning work!) and Orange (mobile games & Flash Lite content).

Last, but not least – there’s a chance to win a brand new copy of CS4! But you must register and attend to get all this goodness.

To register, please see Mark Doherty’s blog: http://flashmobileblog.com
