DesignAday: Flashing the iPhone?

  • D Stephen Haynes · 2 months ago
    Yeah, the reason behind this is mainly because of security. Theoretically, someone could generate malicious code and run/execute that over Flash. Plus, I think Apple is pushing for open standards and such in HTML 5 that supposedly makes Flash obsolete.

    Here's the bit that I was forgetting when I wrote this and didn't take the time to research. From John Nack:

    "The iPhone SDK License does not currently allow runtimes such as Flash Player or Adobe AIR."
