No Flash on the iPhone 21 Jun 2007

The iPhone won't include Flash Player. And with Apple building its own multimedia plug-ins there's a fair chance that we'll never see Flash content on this device. Yesterday it was announced that YouTube clips, for example, will be displayed in high quality H.264 format via a dedicated application - rather than in the heavily-compressed Flash Video format we're used to seeing in our desktop browsers. Not good news for Adobe.

I cannot wait for this Product to come to the UK, I have 2 phones both with varying PDA functions wished they were both merged into one, life will be a lot easier and because I travel on the the train a lot I do have my music on the go (Ipod). I have often wondered what life would be like if carried just one device that allowed me to make calls, organise my schedules and documents and surf the web. I just hope the Battery Life is better than what we got on the Ipods and comes without the £50.00 bbattery replacement charge they currently ask for.
I wonder how long we will have to wait for and no doubt we will be paying double the price……our friends across the pond are so lucky.

Apple is taking things more and more serious. Doing their own plug-ins is a big step from my point of view. Though, I didn't like the iPhone that much.. it's too big for what it can do, I prefer smaller things.
