Adobe Smoking Same Dope as Sun ★ Ben Charny (yes, that guy) in The Wall Street Journal: On Tuesday, when asked about the issue during a conference call with investors, [Adobe CEO Shantanu] Narayen said the company had since obtained the software developer tools Apple released last month. The tools will let Adobe build a Flash player for the iPhone, then distribute it through Apple’s iTunes online store, he said. And without approval from Apple (including APIs beyond those in the current third-party SDK), they can distribute it in the same alternate universe as Sun’s supposedly-in-the-works Java port. (The full Journal story is, alas, behind their pay wall. (Rupert Murdoch, where are you?) Best way I know to get a free version is to follow a link to it from Google News.)

Nothing to add there. This isn't Adobe's call to make, and Apple's stance so far has been against Flash.

Yeah, but the sad part is they are aiming to make Apple look bad for not allowing this to go through. Notice the stance that Adobe takes looks like they are the good guys coming to the rescue to make it happen. If Apple stands by their negative stance then it will look like Apple is the big bad guy who's crippling the iPhone.
