So if they decide that silverlight is better for the iphone than flash, then let it be and we'll see the results. If Adobe really wanted to get Flash on the iphone my guess is that it would already be available for the Jailbroken comunity one way or another... if the only reason was an issue with Apple...

"So we've worked with Apple to create a server-side based solution with IIS Media Services," Goldfarb continued, "and what we're doing is taking content that's encoded for smooth streaming and enabling the content owner to say, 'I want to enable the iPhone.' The server will dynamically make the content work -- same content, same point of origin -- on the iPhone. We do this with the HTML 5 tag, in many ways." It's SERVER-SIDE, and iPhone only gets html page with tag and h.264 stream. Any webserver can do it, you don't need silverlight for this. And Apple has nothing to do with this - it's just HTML 5 support. Why nobody reads whole news and just continue to copypaste this crap?

The benefit is that pages load faster, have no flashing animations and requires less memory thus less chance of freezing. Adobe should really work on its Flash, it has some serious bugs on PC that have been there for ages... one being taking keyboard focus when there are no input fields, like youtube's video player. If you click pause, the keys up and down won't work until you click out of the flash widget. There is also the flash updater annoyance, which shows up sometimes during Windows startup. In my opinion, flash has no right to run as an app, only as a plugin inside a browser, and so it should only show updater when hitting a page with newer version of flash. Adobe has also been spamming with its new AIR component, which comes with Acrobat Reader, and most people don't even need it. On the other hand, Apple also spams with its QuickTime bundled along with iTunes. And Microsoft is no exception. They secretly installed a plugin in Firefox with its Windows Update.
