"We believe Flash is synonymous with the Internet experience, and we are committed to bringing Flash to the iPhone," he said. "We have evaluated (the software developer tools) and we think we can develop an iPhone Flash player ourselves."
iPhone users have been waiting for Flash to hit the iPhone, The desktop version of Adobe's Flash player was just too awkward and slow to work well on the iPhone.
According to Steve Jobs, The version of Flash player that runs on Macs and PCs is "too slow to be useful" on the iPhone, Jobs said during the March 4th Apple shareholders meeting, while the mobile version known as Flash Lite is "not capable of being used with the Web." So, Adobe has started crafting that sought after middle-ground Flash player for the iPhone. There is, however, one potential problem with Adobe's decision to go forward with Flash development for the iPhone.
According to Apple's guidelines, Adobe would have to develop a Flash solution as a stand-alone application - Apple prohibits plug-ins. This raises the question of how Flash would work on the iPhone. Add to that, Apple and Adobe's apparent quarrels in unrelated negotiations, and Adobe could have some trouble deploying Flash on the iPhone.
Let's hope it'll end satisfactorily.
