Application Suggestion: Flash Support

[neoddr089]

I was wondering if it is possible or if anyone is currently working on flash support for the iphone? Since people figured out how to plugins such as pxl support to safari, it doesnt seem that much more difficult, but im probably wrong.

Ive heard from some that it would decrease the battery life too much, and to that I have to say, SSH uses decreases battery life, you still see people using that.

Even though im probably / am going to get flamed on this, I just wanted to get out what I think would be cool

Thanks for listening

There are a couple of retail stores I frequent that post their ads online. I was riding with the family to one such store today and I tried to pull up the ad. The site had the ad and said click her for flash, click here for html. The html link did not work Oh well. I tried the flash link and that link worked. I also got a message to download flash to see the ad.

I should have tried that.:D

By then we were at the store.

Later I did and noticed that along with the download flash link was a working link for the html. I am such a noob.:eek:

several people have posted reasons why flash wouldnt work on the iphone. i think it involves flash not working well with the os to begin with and then battery drain. no expert here, but others who know things have explained it more. gonna go check now for the explanation because this comes up a lot.

ya, Hans is right. The biggest problem right now is getting flash to work productively on your phone. Youtube already drains your battery enough, and flash would kill it.
