Apple teams up with Adobe for iPhone Flash at long last

With Android getting all Flash-ey, Apple’s “Goldilocks” position on Flash — the full Flash player is too hefty, Flash Lite is too weak — seemed pretty untenable. Now Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen has revealed that Apple and Adobe are “collaborating” on making Flash a reality on the iPhone, citing the technical challenge it presents. What’s clear is that with all this work to do, it doesn’t seem they’re going the watered-down Flash Lite route, but we’re trying not to hold our breath for a full-on, Hulu-friendly version that will finally help us get that Doogie Howser fix on the go. Naturally, there’s no word on when this will hit.
