Windows and OS X versions of Adobe Digital Editions were released on June 19, 2007. The software requires version 9.0 of Adobe Flash Player. Adobe originally announced a Linux version would be published at the end of 2007 but later changed their mind. All promises of future versions have now been removed from the Adobe's official FAQ.
