Flex Hero now available for download?

If you are like me then you are anxiously awaiting the ability to create apps for mobile devices with Flex. With the announcement of Flex Hero a couple of weeks ago I have been a kid waiting for Christmas. Several people have asked about Klok for Android and I have been playing around with Flash CS5 but I would love to build it with Flex if possible.

So today I decided to see what additional information was available online. A quick Google search returned this result:


Clicking the link brought me to the general login page for Adobe's site. Upon logging in I was brought to the Adobe Groups home page. Unfortunately, that is where the trail went cold. Hitting the link directly, even after logging in, gave me an generic permission denied error.

It seems that on July 20, it was possible to download the Flex SDK with Hero atop it, but it is no longer publicly available(?). Perhaps there is a private beta that I don't know about. If there is I would love to be included... Did you hear that Adobe? Just in case you didn't, I will say it lounder: ADOBE, PLEASE INCLUDE ME IN THE FLEX HERO BETA.

Klok 2.1.1 Released - Now supports Google Apps Calendar

Several people have pointed out that importing from Google Apps Calendar didn't work while importing from GMail Calendar did. Klok 2.1.1 now supports Google Apps Calendar so that you can import your meetings (recurring ones to0) directly to Klok. Make sure you select "Use HTTPS" when entering in your credentials. As usual, let me know if you run into issues at support@mcgraphix.com
