[Advice] Flash on new iphone?

[frantona]

Jus that,

Will the iphone 2.0 and its safari (2.0??) be able to show flash enable sites?

Thanks

There is no evidence as of right now that the new iPhone software will have a flash plugin included. Its extremely unlikely (but arguably possible) that we'll get a nice surprise at WWDC, but don't count on it.

theshakyone has managed to get the latest build of 2.0 working and having looked at his phone in real i dont think there was flash support, thet latest build of 2.0 is the one they will be using on the new iphones

I wish they would stop being greedy and give us flash Like Sally struthers feeds those starving kids....

I doubt it.

Adobe is still unable to do much with the SDK Agreement and the SDK in its current state. They'll have to work with Apple.

adobe should just buy out apple like they did macromedia.... rip macromedia <3

Adobe buy out apple? are you having a joke? with what money, apple is worth about 8 times as much as adobe on the stock market.

In some embodiments, the position of the optical sensor 164 can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and the sensor in the device housing) so that a single optical sensor 164 may be used along with the touch screen display for both video conferencing and still and/or video image acquisition.

This (wich i took from the patent talked above) means the iphone wil bring a camera you can rotate for video confering or for taking pictures????

[weezo]

no this mean the iphone will have two camera, one on the front and one on the back...

[idavid]

patents does not mean, they are going to on this iPhone 2.0. They will keep that for 3.0 maybe or later on a firmware upgrade.......

It seems as if Adobe is working on it (see here: http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/06/17/adobe.on.iphone.flash/ ). Now we only need to have Apple include Adobe into the SDK developer program and then approve the Flash app. If not, maybe Adobe will distribute it for jailbroken iPhones.
