Adobe just released the beta of Flash Player 11.2 and AIR 3.2 for Desktop with brand new capabilities.
One of the great new additions is the mouse right and middle click events. That means we finally can remove completely the context menu! Focusing in games we have the mouse lock that will be available only in fullscreen mode and new relative mouse coordinates.
You can take a closer look at it in this post from Thibault Imbert.

More joy for Flash enthusiasts 
These past few days have been crazy after the announcement that Adobe stops the development of Flash Player for mobile browsers.
Flash always has been the technology that was able to do things that HTML couldn’t. With the big improvements the web is experimenting with HTML5, Flash has less room to be the chosen technology for all the interactive content in the World Wide Web.
I have been working recently with Flash on an Android tablet for the browser and talking about performance I have to say you have to create the content thinking on the device to get good results. I believe this is an important reason why Flash in the mobile browsers are not always welcome.
I am working on the elearning industry and this decision causes we take measures, as we need to run the content within the browser, Flash is not a good choice when we want to bring courses to tablets or mobiles.
Sad days…
