Flash Support Coming Soon to iPhone (?)

Bloomberg is reporting that Apple and Adobe are now working together to incorporate flash player technology into future iPhones. The popular player is used to deliver video and animation content on the web, and although many models of cell phones can carry the plug in, iPhones are not compatible. Apple CEO Steve Jobs called on Adobe to  make a new version for the iPhone, and the two companies will now be working together to bring Flash support to the popular gadget. The lack of this feature has always been a complaint for many, and the addition of it will make the iPhone even more handy for viewing content on the web.

Interesting to see Adobe fully admitting that the "onus" is on them to make this a reality. The bottom of the article also mentions the competition from Silverlight, though it doesn't give any info on market share.
