Good view on Flash & iPad from Zeldman

Here’s a good read from Zeldman.com – “Flash, iPad, Standards“. Will this be the true wake up calls for those creating non-accessible web and for those who paid the minimal fee to create their corporate non-accessible web sites? We’ll see about that and I hope this will really happen as a web professional.

In the article, it mentions Apple not putting Flash onto iPhone and iPad isn’t about revenge. It occurs to me killing Newton MessagePad and reinventing another personal device is a revenge from Uncle Stevie J to John Sculley 8p

Flash is coming to iPhone for real?

Bloomberg.com reports that Adobe is working (with Apple?) to bring Flash to iPhone finally.

“It’s a hard technical challenge, and that’s part of the reason Apple and Adobe are collaborating,” Narayen said today in a Bloomberg Television interview from the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. “The ball is in our court. The onus is on us to deliver.”

Well, we’ll see about that. It’s been a long time since Adobe & ARM announced their partnership back a few months ago. I guess it’ll be a slow process provided that it’s made for performance on ARM devices, iPhone particularly.

Adobe will bring Flash to iPhone. But in what form?

After Apple releases the iPhone SDK. Adobe says they are committed to”bring Flash to iPhone” but it’s”harder than they ever thought” now. So it might be possible to bring Flash Lite to iPhone rather than complete Flash Player. But then you do expect a complete Flash Player on a normal browser, don’t ya? After all Flash Lite still haven’t picked up yet … at least not in Hong Kong. As a web developer myself, I wonder how many sites will break on iPhone without Flash Player. “Break” is considered as unable to operate critical functions to the site itself than any missing visual elements.
