Adobe Releases HTML5 Extension for Dreamweaver CS5
The Adobe HTML5 Pack is an extension to Adobe Dreamweaver CS5, the latest version of the industry-leading HTML authoring tool for website design. This extension provides more creative options to Adobe Creative Suite 5 users so they can more easily create, deliver and optimize compelling content consistently, across the widest array of screens, to maximize revenue streams and forward their businesses.
The new HTML5 Pack is available as a free download for users of Dreamweaver CS5.Adobe's release, while certainly in the works well before Apple CEO Steve Jobs posted his Thoughts on Flash open letter, serves as something of an answer to the challenge posed by Jobs at the conclusion of that letter.
Perhaps Adobe should focus more on creating great HTML5 tools for the future, and less on criticizing Apple for leaving the past behind.

I still believe Flash is useful for anything not related to video or audio (such as complex 3-D animation, games, etc.). Trying to convert these types of things into an HTML5/Javascript equivalent would be a coding nightmare.

An important bullet point is also that Flash CS5 supports exporting animations to HTML5 Canvas.
Adobe are in the HTML5 game, no matter what some people on here and Steve Jobs wants to claim.
And creating complex games in Flash requires more than just Flash CS5 and some pointing and clicking. ActionScript and Javascript are very similar and Canvas is made for such "coding nightmares".
How's that for a concession..
It should also be said that Adobe Flash CS5 exports out to HTML5. This feature has been in development since last year... before the whole Apple vs Adobe thing.
Hell, Business is Business.. if HTML5 can bring business, you may as well give customers the option. Props to Adobe!
EDIT:
This is great!! I'm downloading it now. Good to see Adobe embracing HTML5.
