First you may ask what is Adobe Air? We don’t want to confuse you with Adobe flash player so we will explain. Adobe AIR allows one to publish ActionScript 3 projects and run them as native applications (.apk) for the Android OS. These AIR applications can now be delivered to Android devices through Android application stores such as the Android Market.

Developers can write new code or reuse existing web content, either way. The source code and assets are reusable across the Flash Platform runtimes, Adobe AIR and Flash Player, giving developers a way to easily target other mobile and desktop environments. Click (here) to see video examples.

Reporters at Androidpolice.com have shared a snap shot of this program straight from the Android Market. See image below. Sources from twitter also shared that there aren’t many applications available that are compatible with Adobe AIR but to see a list of the 23 that currently are available, click (here).
