So I am about to embark on writing my first ever mobile application using
AIR.  I have been reading a lot about it, but I am surprised how little
information I am finding on the best structures to use that are better on
mobile apps or that users prefer.  My app will basically be a splash screen
followed by a simple datagrid, and when a user touches on a record, web
content will be displayed using maps, images, and data.  They will want to
efficiently remove that data from the screen and select another target. 
Also, I will need some kind of popout that a user can select filters to
filter the data.  So I have looked at setting up a mobile environment in
Flash Builder and it looks like you can set it up as a blank, view-based, or
tabbed program.  I wondered if you have found one type of construct to be
more effective than the other?  Also, can you combine them?  I mean, can you
have a view based application that also has tabs at the bottom?  Any advice
on the best mobile layouts would be appreciated, as well as any pitfalls or
things that you think I should be aware of as I embark on this journey.

Also, I am having trouble narrowing down the number of columns to show a
user in the datagrid so that it is all readable.  Any advice on efficiently
showing tabular data on a mobile device would be helpful.

Thanks!!
