Adobe.com gets three million visits a month from iPhone users seeking a Player download. But until Safari supports plugins, and until Apple approves its installation, there's no way to help them. The blogosphere echo-chamber today is pretty fierce on such old news... your post is pretty moderate in comparison, thanks! jd/adobe Most of the interesting discussion on this took place last month, when that message first appeared.

Not sure that's true of much else it makes though. I’d say 12/10 mice that aren’t made by Apple are better than its efforts. Not sure that’s true of much else it makes though.

Apple restricts use of technologies required by products like Flash Player. Until Apple eliminates these restrictions, Adobe cannot provide Flash Player for the iPhone or iPod.” My opinion is Adobe's words are unprofessional and counterproductive. In addition, although I would like the option to view flash, on the web sites that I usually frequent it is used for advertising…so I am not missing much. Of course, that is only my opinion. “Flash Player not available for your device. Apple restricts use of technologies required by products like Flash Player.

Now they go against everything they stood for in the early days thats why I have avoided all apple products like the plague, that and the fact that for 8/10 products they have, there are actual better choices out there.

Still, I'd also like to be able to have all bases covered. Chop chop Cupertino!
