“A second feature in AIR 3 which can make data persistence more secure is the introduction of the mobile EncryptedLocalStore (ELS) API. ELS has been available for the desktop profile since 1.0, but AIR 3 is the first version which makes it available on [...]

It will support both Flash and AIR for these devices. Looks like AIR Mobile reach is increasing by the day! My only issue is their certification/submission problem, it’s a mess ! Please fix it, make it simple like other apps store!
