Very low data entry apps where user logs in and then clicks radio buttons check boxes and selects some dates and then view reports or charts is best Timesheet data entry is light and employees travelling or on tour can easily use this. 2. Heavy data entry is anyway unsuitable for tablets and smartphones and such apps best Windows/Mac via Chrome/Safari/Mozilla on desktops 3. "Legacy" Flex3 Flex 4.n apps may have use cases or there are no budgets for AIR mobile conversion. AIR Mobile does not support many MX controls and so Puffin is good choice for this case 4. It does not work on private intranets 5. As it is cloud based cloudmosa.com can be an insecurity question as stuff travels through them. This may be from few technically minded clients. If APP is not banking or finance only MIS, is mostly read-only info then objection not strong. Uploads and updates and heavy data entry can be done from Windows/Macs via Chrome/Safari etc Moreover we can use Google TOTP So the seed known only to RDBMS server and user's mobile Google Authenticator is a level that 3rd party cannot ever know. 6. Puffin interface very nice like the RDP clients. There is pinch and zoom so it is easy to click on date fields, check boxes etc. Regards -jnc -- View this message in context: http://apache-flex-users.2333346.n4.nabble.com/Puffin-Browser-for-Flex-tp3796p3799.html Sent from the Apache Flex Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
