Flash Coming to All Smartphone's Except iPhone

Adobe has promised that Flash will be on most Smartphone's including Windows Mobile, Palm Pre, Android, Symbian, Blackberry and NVIDIA powered netbooks by years end. One smart phone notably missing from this list is the popular iPhone.

Adobe said that Flash is not coming to the iPhone because the iPhone and Apple in general is a “closed device”. Despite pressure from developers to make the iPhone more open, Apple still believes that a closed device is better than an open one.

A very interesting think about Flash 10.1 is that it will support graphics chip acceleration on NVIDIA netbooks which means that you can view content on a netbook without slowing your netbook down to a snails pace. Adobe AIR will also see improvements with Flash 10.1. Lets just hope that Adobe can deliver on its promises.
