Flash Developers – Make money with Sony Ericsson and PlayNow™

DECEMBER 2, 2009

Sony Ericsson’s channels to market, PlayNow™ arena and Fun & Downloads are now open for distribution and sale of Flash content, thanks to our recent simplification of certification requirements which means Flash content does not need to be signed.

Sony Ericsson’s Project Capuchin technology enables you to convert your content in to a Java application (JAD/JAR files). You provide Adobe Flash CS3 or CS4, we provide the rest. Here is the basic procedure:

1. Install the Sony Ericsson Capuchin kit , available for Windows and Mac OS
2. Use the Create Capuchin Application function to turn your content in to JAD/JAR files
3. Submit your JAD/JAR files at submit.sonyericsson.com
4. Within 30 days (typically less) Sony Ericsson will review your application
5. Accepted applications are made available on PlayNow™ arena and/or Fun & Downloads
6. Users buy your application; you make money.
