This application will not run on an iPhone. Its an iPhone “emulator” of sorts that runs on your PC or Mac. As far as I know, there’s no plans to get the runtime on any mobile phones.

Oh boy, that’s just what I need, a non-portable virtual phone. I’ll add to the Alice in Wonderland experience by downloading the AIR iPhone onto my hacked iPhone (if i had one) and then crawling inside the black hole that doing so creates, where I’ll no doubt meet Steve Jobs in a bunny suit and some geezer who makes lead lined top hats… yee ha, the end of the world is nigh!

Flash this bunny boy!

Joe and his crew presented his AIR iPhone at our user group last month (Michigan Flex User’s Group, http://www.theflexgroup.org). His app is something that really has to be seen and played with to be amazed. The fact he wrote the shell of the phone without the iPhone even being released (and got it really close to the final product) speaks to him as a devloper.

Der… Flash was what made Macromedia worth $3.4 billion. The transition from just pure animation into full development platform is going to be the strategy that cements Adobe as the web’s most important company. Flex for the win!

I would like to try to put this application on my browser on my actual iPhone, for a more Kafka-esque experience…

AIR apps do not run in the browser. They runs as standalone apps just like any other app (Word, Firefox, iTunes).
