Earlier today, Adobe demoed a version of Flash running on Google's Android OS and yet to date there is no light at the end of the virtual tunnel for Flash on the iPhone. Sure, Adobe says they are working on a version of Flash, but are there other factors in play that are preventing Flash on the iPhone?
At a Flash Developer's Conference in London (FOTB), Senior Director of Engineering at Adobe Paul Betlem confirmed that the company is developing a Flash Player for the iPhone. Still we don't appear any closer this becoming a reality. As previously reported, the ball is in Apple's court as to when it will be available.
In the UK, the iPhone ads are very similar to the campaign being run successfully here in the US. They focus on the iPhone's ability to access "the real Internet". The lack of support for Adobe's Flash and Java was reason enough for the UK Advertising Authority to pull the ads for being misleading. According to reports, at least two people complained to the board and they agreed. "We concluded that the ad gave a misleading impression of the internet capabilities of the iPhone" adding that because "viewers were likely to expect to be able to see all the content on a web site normally accessible through a PC rather than just having the ability to reach the website."
Tim Harper Tried to use the Purplera1n jailbreak, didn't work. Four tries is enough for me tonight. I will just wait for the Dev-Team to release theirs.
