Leading Transportation IT Provider Railinc Hosts Adobe® Flex™ and AIR™ Pre-Release Event

Cary, NC, February 15, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Railinc hosted the highly successful Triangle area event for the Adobe Flex 3 and AIR Pre-Release Tour, which took place on January 23, 2008 at Railinc's corporate headquarters.

According to Adrian Pomilio, web developer/designer at Railinc, “Railinc is excited about how Flex and AIR will improve the quality associated with using Railinc products. Across our geography-based or operational applications, Flex and AIR gives Railinc a strong user interface framework to build upon, be it in Web or desktop based applications.”

More than 120 people were in attendance at the event--one of the largest crowds for the tour to date. Attendees were excited about the new technologies and realized how much of an impact Flex and AIR were going to have on the way people interacted with Web applications.

Railinc strives to be an innovative rail industry partner and the first choice for responsive delivery of reliable IT solutions. That is why Railinc is committed to using Adobe Flex 3 and AIR for its Web applications. Through this innovative software Railinc will be able to provide a much more cost effective solution by reducing the development time currently spent on the traditional HTML and Java scripts.

Adobe is touring 60 cities worldwide to announce the much-anticipated launch of Flex 3 and AIR, which are fast becoming the face of Web based applications throughout the world. Once the products are launched they will provide a cross-platform, open source framework for creating rich Internet applications that run identically in all major browsers and operating systems.

“We were delighted to host this event,” said Pomilio. “It introduced many interested users to this 'game-changing' technology, as well as giving Railinc an opportunity to show case our leadership.”
