Flash Development for Android Cookbook: RAW

My book just became available for preorder over at the Packt Publishing website. Not only can you preorder “Flash Development for Android Cookbook“, but it is also being included in the RAW program. This means that even though the book is not yet finished (still in draft stage, really) you can preorder the eBook or the print book and access the draft chapters online before the book is truly published!

For those wondering about the content, whether it leans more toward Flex or pure ActionScript; while there is a bit of Flex sprinkled throughout a few of the chapters, the code examples are almost always written in nothing but pure AS3 to allow anyone using any framework and toolset to implement the recipes easily. Full AS3 class downloads will be available through the Packt website.

As for the current status of the book, I’m putting the finishing touches on my Chapter 10 draft in the next few days. After that, one chapter left to write. The book is currently being tech reviewed and I’ll have to make more modifications based on that and other feedback.

See- it really is RAW right now! I’m not even sure if the publisher has properly typeset the chapters that are available.

So please spread the word, and place a preorder :)

UPDATE: I’ve heard that even though the publish date is marked as September, this was an original projection and the true print date is more likely May or June.
