So what's holding up the long-awaited Abobe Flash support on the iPhone? Believe it or not, right now neither of the current flavors of Flash are optimal, and Abobe is creating a third version just for the House of Jobs' do-everything-else handset.
Interviewed by Bloomberg Television from the World Economic
Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen said, “It’s a hard technical challenge, and that’s part of the
reason Apple and Adobe are collaborating. The ball is in our court. The
onus is on us to deliver.”
Despite the fact that Flash is installed on 98 percent of the world's computers — as well as more than 800 million handsets — it turns out an iPhone implementation isn't a walk in the park. Back in March of '08, Steve Jobs stated that full-blown Flash runs too slowly for the iPhone (dragging down CPU performance — and with it, battery life), while the slimmed-down
Flash Lite, “isn’t capable enough to be used
with the Web,” and called on Adobe to write yet a third version of Flash just for the iPhone.

what the f…? when is this joke going to end? is there going to be a flash player for iphone or not???
it better be…for all the money that we pay!!!
Hope this comes out soon. I hope it will be worth the wait
I’m conflicted on this one. For every useful flash application that downloads to my browser, there are probably ten huge and highly annoying ads. If we get flash for the iPhone I hope we also get adblock.
