Adobe and Apple working on Flash on the iPhone together > News > Flash Magazine: "Adobe have been working on a custom version of the Flash Player for the iPhone. This player has never been released to the public and todays Bloomberg story hints at the reason it's still not released. Shantanu says 'It’s a hard technical challenge, and that’s part of the reason Apple and Adobe are collaborating'. We'd guess from this that it is indeed the slow processor in the iPhone that is the culprit. Initial speculations indicated that the iPhone had a 620Mhz CPU. Later reports adjusted that down to about 400Mhz. Several years ago I did Flash development on iPaq handhelds with similar chips and that was a speed-wise nighmare. Flash just won't run fast enough on that. We guess all we can do is to wish the Adobe Flash Player engineers the best of luck. (via AppleInsider)"
