Adobe announced on Monday at Adobe MAX, the company’s worldwide developer conference, that its Flash Professional CS5 developer tool will enable developers to create interactive applications for the iPhone and iPod Touch. A public beta of Flash Professional CS5 is expected to be available later this year. Despite this welcome from Flash developers, Applications for iPhone does nothing to solve the problem facing web developers, that their Flash content is unavailable on Apple’s device. The pressure is on Apple, now that most other suppliers of Smartphone operating systems have indicated support for Flash. Yet Adobe’s move also proves that vendors are willing to explore every possible workaround in order to support Apple’s device.
