Adobe’s plans to create a Flash player for Apple’s iPhone and iPod touch have been announced. In Ben Charny’s article at the Wall Street Journal, he confirmed that Adobe’s CEO Shantanu Narayen has approved his company’s effort to create a version of Flash Lite for the iPhone using the iPhone SDK. This doesn’t mean that the Safari browser for the iPhone will allow Flash content, but who knows what the future holds.
Thanks to Larry Rains for the story tip.
**** UPDATE ****
Seems like Adobe has their work cut out for them.

Apple seems to be “Anti-flash” so in return I don’t purchase their products. flash is a huge part of my web experience…

Apple is absolutely not “anti-flash”.. that’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard all week.

My ass is “Pro-flash”…will you purchase it’s products?

i wouldn’t call Apple “pro-Flash” either. apple and adobe have had a mutually-beneficial path to success, but it’s not all hugs and kisses - or so i hear from reliable sources.
