iPhone users looking to edit photos on the go can do so with Adobe's new, free Photoshop.com Mobile application; and the popular Rock Band franchise is set to hit this month.

Adobe unveils Photoshop.com Mobile

The new Photoshop.com Mobile application for the iPhone and iPod touch allows users to edit photos, apply effects and share images instantly. The application also offers connectivity with Photoshop.com, an Adobe service that offers 2GB of free online photo storage.

"As the digital imaging leader, Adobe is excited to bring Photoshop.com Mobile to iPhone users," said Doug Mack, vice president and general manager of Consumer and Hosted Solutions at Adobe. "Now, with access to powerful editing and sharing tools, iPhone users are armed with the resources to document all of life’s unexpected moments, make them look their best and then re-live those memories with friends and family."

Adobe said users can make quick edits to photos with a series of finger gestures. And any changes can be quickly undone, allowing users to experiment and see what works without ruining the original photo.

Features highlighted by Adobe include:

• Crop, rotate, change color with just a touch.
  
  
• Give an extra glow with Soft Focus.
  
  
• Get artsy with Sketch.
  
  
• Apply one-touch effects like Warm Vintage and Vignette.

The 3.9MB application is available via iTunes in the U.S. and Canada only.
