iPhone Finally Getting Its Flash On
According to our sources, Adobe's Shantanu Narayen is finally developing flash for the iPhone. It has been in development since June 2008, and is a customized solution for the iPhone.
According to Apple, regular flash is just too heavy, and would use up the battery life too quickly for an iPhone, and that flash lite is just not good enough. Hahaha! So, Steve Jobs has been able to close a deal with Adobe to produce a solution for this problem. Narayan was quoted saying, "the ball is in our court. The onus is on us to deliver." It is believed that this solution depends a lot more on Adobe's engineering team than that of Apple's.
Back in 08, Adobe had actually stated that a solution could be produced "very soon" if Apple had approved of it. Obviously, Apple didn't make the right decision and rejected the proposal. Tsk tsk. But then again, Adobe could've just dropped the project themselves. Who knows!!
I absolutely think that it is about time!!! I seriously did not understand why Apple chose not to release their 3g with a flash!! I mean cmon, most standard phones nowadays come with flash!! But hey, I'm glad that Steve Jobs has finally come to his senses and has decided to listen to his consumers!!
