Adobe developing Flash for iPhone using iPhone SDK

People anxious to see Flash on the iPhone rejoice–during a conference call with investment experts Adobe chief Shantanu Narayen said that Adobe plans to develop and release a special version of Flash for the iPhone and release it via the upcoming App Store.

“We believe Flash is synonymous with the Internet experience, and we are committed to bringing Flash to the iPhone,” said Narayen. “We have evaluated [the SDK] and we think we can develop an iPhone Flash player ourselves.”

Steve Jobs had said previously that the full Flash player is too big, but the Flash Lite player is too small. This one might be just right.

Along those same lines, Microsoft is apparently working on a version Silverlight for the iPhone using the same SDK.

Hmmm…I hope Adobe gets accepted into the iPhone Developers Program.
