The television, whether we like it or not, will continue to evolve into a delivery mechanism for more than just an antenna, cable connection, or satellite television. Adobe wants to  Flash  to become the standard on many sections of the home entertainment category. This includes televisions, DVD players, and game consoles.

Adobe’s Flash Lite software would enable all these devices to become equipped with the capability to run Adobe’s Flash software to enable forthcoming interactive television in a way that far outstrips what is available today from cable and satellite providers. Multiple high-definition streams overlaid on your television and multiple ways to interact with that information (weblink? purchasing? research?) would be available.

With this move, internet connected TV will be able to play back videos and offer Web-like interactivity. Adobe GM, VP platform business unit David Wadhwani says, “Adobe Flash Platform for the Digital Home will dramatically change the way we view content on televisions. Consumers are looking to access Flash technology-based videos, applications, services and other rich web content across screens. We are looking forward to working with partners to create these new experiences and deliver content consistently across devices whether consumers view it on their desktop, mobile phone or television.”
