It looks like a web client for Photoshop will be coming to Windows Mobile, allowing users to upload pictures to Photoshop.com and edit then over the air on the cloud later. All the new photo goodness should be launching by the end of September, and according to wmpoweruser.com (http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=761), the new Photoshop.com on Windows Mobile will rely on the new Adobe Flash Lite 3 protocol.

It seems that the web client should work with both Windows Mobile Standard and Professional/Classic devices, although the latter's touchscreen will not work with the program requiring navigating by hardware directional pad. If that is true, it will be a great shame as the Omnia (http://www.pocketnow.com/index.php?a=portal_detail&t=reviews&id=1089) would benefit from a best in class photo editing program as it does sport a high resolution camera.

More information could be obtained direct from Adobe (http://www.adobe.com/products/pscom/mobile/?promoid=DMDTR).

Just to ensure that people don't get too excited, this is not an image editing program for Windows Mobile. I suspect it's more like Photoshop Album for Windows Mobile, allowing you to upload and view photos at Photoshop Express (https://www.photoshop.com/express/landing.html?promoid=CBTVJ) and create albums locally on your device.

Plus, it only works (offically) on Motorola Qs, Samsung BlackJacks and Palm Treos.
