Adobe gives up on Flash for iPhone/iPad

The primary goal of Flash has always been to enable cross-browser, platform and device development,” Chambers wrote in a blog post. “This is the exact opposite of what Apple wants. They want to tie developers down to their platform, and restrict their options to make it difficult for developers to target other platforms.

Time to shift to Android?

Or we can see if other developers create a platform that will eventually be able to solve the problem this corporation could not.
