Adobe (Nasdaq: ADBE) Systems has assembled a group of industry leaders in an effort to put its Flash-based rich Internet solutions and content on most every screen -- PCs, mobile phones, MP3 players, televisions and any other consumer electronic device that might have a screen worthy of delivering content. The effort is called the "Open Screen

Telecom, Cisco, Intel, LG Electronics, Marvell, Motorola, Nokia, NTT
