You guys at Adobe (actually, MM) squandered your mobile Flash initiative with bad management and by narrowing your view to Japan. The fact is, Flash Lite does not have the features for a full browser experience and the desktop version of Flash is far too unweildly to operate without error on the iPhone. You don't have a monopoly on multi media experiences; nor should you. There's a paradigm shift and with it, the long needed dismantling of Flash's choke-hold on Web-based multimedia. Look.

You don’t have a monopoly on multi media experiences; nor should you. There’s a paradigm shift and with it, the long needed dismantling of Flash’s choke-hold on Web-based multimedia.

"WE" want the full web experience on our mobile device, never mind most of the USA is still not even 3G(LOL). Who cares what a CEO said if you hear it straight from the developers than take their word for it. CEO 's promise things say things to hype consumers up and guess what those things might not work as planned its all just a gimmick.

I guess the problem is porting the full adobe flash plugin in to Mac OS X's cellphone environment. Don't see why thats sooo hard.(LOL) Can't see why someone would buy a phone that say's full support for the web, but lacks flash one of the major ingredients to the web experience. It is said good things come to those that wait. Meaning in this instance Adobe's plugin will be much better than other plugins on mobile devices(Is there any cellphone that supports full flash?), but if Mac and Adobe decide the consumer will have to "upgrade" charging us a fee for there new "highly optimized" plug-in then I'll stick with my current cell phone ..
