Flash Mob
Here’s a possible reason for the lack of flash support on the iPhone – Adverts.
I think that Apple’s purchase of mobile advertising company Quattro wireless is part of their strategy to corner the mobile advertising market and it will make it rewarding to app developers to include their advertising in free apps on the store. This is pretty obvious, but I think that the lack of flash on the device is deliberate to prevent the Google/Adobe ad duopoly from exercising their dominance and damaging Apple’s ad plans.
Apple’s long term planning never ceases to amaze me but if my guess is true this is quite impressive bloody mindedness.
