Any chance that SmartFoxServer could run with the Flash Player 7 Mobile version? This could be very cool, but I can't tell how much API it's friendly with. I have a feeling you know pretty well, Lapo, so I thought I'd ask. Thanks.

Why not! :)
According to Adobe the latest version does support XMLSocket, so it's definitely possible :) ( SmartFoxServer

Sooner or later I gotta make a test. If someone has a chance to try before we do let us know! 8) :)

Very cool indeed. Looking forward to the results. 8)
To bad I don't own a Pocket PC myself, but this is more than enough reason to get one. :P

I've been a member for years at this site. They've tested a lot of it out, and shown some of the limits. My main question was if SmartFox would work.

I'll set about testing this right away. :)

EDIT: Found the other interesting post.

Do you think it also would be possible to run smartfox on a Flash Lite 2 enabled mobile phone?

I am proud to say that I have taken the SimpleConnect demo, resized it to be more "friendly" for a handheld, and published.

It WORKS!!!

Lapo, this is awesome! This brings a whole new realm to my site! Now... I wonder how Flash Lite 2 does...

I'll keep working with the pocket pc version... If anyone cares to see how it goes, it'll be at: http://vipirates.clickopolis.net/mobile/handheld.html

The source is here: http://vipirates.clickopolis.net/mobile/handheld.fla
The flash file is here: http://vipirates.clickopolis.net/mobile/handheld.fla

This also means that you could easily just run any Flash Player 6 SmartFox App in the pocket pc version. I'd just prefer to have them resized for the different screen orientation and size.

This is awesome!

humm, I don't think so.
The Lite player does not support the XMLSocket object, so the only way to create a multiplayer-like interaction is to use the polling technique

XML Socket support for flash light 2.1

Well read this PDF product sheet.

It states versin 2.1 key fetures does support XML Sockets. Not sure if that is the same as XML socket object? Can some one correct me?

That's correct, since version 2.1 the XMLSocket object is supported just like in Flash player 7
