Adobe 'Get Flash' Page On iPhone Now Blames Apple

Adobe has pointed a subtle finger at Apple in a recent change to their "Get Flash" download page for their Flash Player. When viewed on an iPhone or iPod touch, it now blames Apple directly for the lack of Flash support for the device, pointing out their restrictions on "such technologies".

Can't blame them for calling it like it is.

So frustrating. This is one of the bigger restrictions/drawbacks of the iPhone where it cannot display many webpages. I can't believe we're over 2 years into the iPhone with still no solution on the horizon.

I tend to agree with Oscar that this will likely be a big, splashy event once they actually bring Flash to the iPhone.

Apple is looking more like Microshit... I mean Microsoft... GREEDY as a PIG.
