Adobe engages Apple in passive aggressive warfare with iPhone’s Flash message


Adobe’s seemingly tried everything in its fight to get Apple to tear down enough development barriers to get Flash ported to the iPhone, culminating in a native compilation option in CS5 that… well, really doesn’t solve much of anything. So far, nothing’s worked. What’s next? Get the masses fired up with some old-fashioned propaganda and let ‘em riot down at One Infinite Loop, of course! Visiting Adobe’s Flash download page from an iPhone now shows a pretty tersely-worded message informing the user that they’re getting short-changed simply by Apple’s refusal to budge, so yeah, if you hear an occasional cry of “this is outrageous, I’m writing Apple immediately!” while sitting at an airport gate or a coffee shop, you can safely guess what just happened.
