We are also equally committed to bringing the Flash Player to the iPhone, so now we do have a Flash Player 10 version for smartphones. We continue to work with Apple. We need more APIs and cooperation to bring the capabilities of Flash to the iPhone and we think it\u2019s in both of our best interests to make sure that 85% of the top 100 websites that use Flash, that that experience is available to the Apple customers.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The real question is not whether Adobe is committed to this, but whether Apple will allow it. I think the stake are high for Adobe, which is why I have such keen interest<\/a>.

On the other hand, if Adobe gets its stuff on iPhone it will give it a further advantage over rival plug-ins like Microsoft\u2019s Silverlight<\/a>.<\/p>\n
