HTC 안드로이드 단말에 플래쉬 들어갔네 …아이폰은 언제쯤?…

Users are not looking forward to being bombarded with terrible AS2 Flash ads – it’s the full featured AS3 apps that would make Flash on Android/the iPhone really exciting.

What I’d like to see is the ability to create standalone AS3 Flash apps – perhaps running on some sort of mobile Adobe Air player – that could potentially be distributed and monetized through the AppStore.

As an engineer I rather enjoy coding in AS3 and would love to be able to write code once for the web, Android, and the iPhone. But it’s also crucial for me to be able to access native phone features/API like the camera/GPS (enter AIR?).

There are a lot of shite flash games, but the best ones out there are more innovative and fun than the majority of bland 3d console games.

I’m sure if Apple needed to, they could build or install a chip that would be dedicated to handle Flash content. They certainly have the money to do so, and so I don’t see why they would have anything to fear from Adobe. I’m sure Adobe is more than willing to work with Apple on an iPhone friendly version of Flash.

Would Flash really kill the App Store? Then I suppose it would also kill competitor’s app stores as well. I’m surprised there isn’t already a mobile gaming platform that just plays thousands of Flash games. Wouldn’t that immediately eliminate the PSP and NDS mobile platforms because everyone would just play Flash games?

I really doubt that would be the case or it would have already happened. It would also put an awful lot of game developers out of business, too. I’m sure there’ll always be a demand for platform-specific games. Everyone will not just play Flash games.

All companies are out to make money for themselves so both Adobe and Apple are out to move in whatever direction is best for them. It’s nice that Android is running Flash, but there is more to smartphones than just being able to run Flash. So far, Apple is delivering the best web-browing experience (says the handset industry) and it’s doing it without Flash.

In theory, Apple could just probably buy out Adobe and that would be the end of Flash development.

“when I browse to a restaurant site that doesn’t have a backup html page, but I usually see that as more a reflection on the site than the iphone’s lack of Flash support.”

Translation:

Apple can do no wrong! Why would you need a feature that Apple does not have but the competition has!

Anything that doesn’t work is somebody else’s fault, not Apple’s!

Oh wait..

Do a search for corporations that use QuickTime in whatever search engine you choose and then make the above statement. You clearly do not know what you are talking about. We are living in a time where anyone can fact check themselves before one goes off half cocked spouting nonsense, and your above statement at best, is nonsense.

apple will then charge each site based on number of views. how about 0.999$ per view of flash animation per microsecond?

atleast it will help apple stop begging to it’s customers for money

why should it play catchup, others need to play catchup by removing flash, copy paste and of course MMS…. it’s so 1990’s thing why do you need all those old tech.

welcome to new world of no thetering, no mms and no unlocked iPhone 3GS Slaves

Except Japan ware it’s a free giveaway phone

why do people want flash ? to see animated ads banners and have a reduced battery life when they are simply browsing the web ?
i really don’t understand.

anyway, as long as adobe is not even capable of coding a “not too bad” player on OS X, the doors to the iPhone should stay closed for them.
adobe ruins the internet experience on OS X, so Apple won’t let them ruin the iPhone experience. that’s normal.

instead of complaining, pointing fingers on Apple and try to enrole users to force Apple to accept flash on the iPhone, Adobe should spend more time on optimizing and debugging their flash player. that woud be better for everybody.
