Between Apple and Adobe recently because of the support Flash or not, play more lively war of words. Personal humble opinion, Apple should make the current selection is not because Steve Jobs to seek temporary tongue fast, since the iPhone is believed to be the long-term internal assessment of its own to make the choice after that Apple from Adobe will even look at the strategic level as competitors rather than partners is important, but declined to Flash in the picture is a very smart excuses.

The reason why the two are competing the keyword is still the “platform.” Adobe Flash is currently the industry’s share of a technology platform the most widely used, even more than we take for granted in Java. According to statistics of Adobe , Flash Player 99% occupied with Internet access computer equipment, more than 200 million professional users in the use, where the professional users should refer to the user have a certain ability to develop, based on the number of applications in Flash is quite amazing. Therefore, whether the iPhone, iPad on the introduction of Flash support, from Apple’s perspective, this is a platform war, who do not want to keep the. Imagine we assume that Flash has been supported by Apple, then turned around Adobe can also create a “Flash App Store” or something like that, the developer can upload a small application, any platform, users can download.

Think about the impact of Apple to have much? Adobe may have not thought about how to have a App Store, but does not rule out the possibility that one will meddle in business. Mac DVD to iPad converter is the a assistant If I am developing an application using ObjC substantially iPad or iPhone that use the CPU to vector rendering petite and dynamic effects without additional control if using the DVD to iPad for mac!

Apple is not a long “opende, or “closed open”, the hope that through their own closed work with other companies. Jobs After the reunification, by stimulating iPod users love and trust, and then purchase using the iPhone; through the iPhone, then use the iPad; by iPad, then go back to using the Mac. This is a very good closed loop process. Open, it will lose profits, while closed, will make Apple more revenue. Of course, I also want to say is that for Flash support to friendly and indeed in some ways may make iPad Daozhi mediocrity, such as performance. Analogy is with it Firefox, the speed issue is now widely criticized for the user, which is the basic problem caused by the plug-in, and now Chrome though fast enough, but with the growing number of expansion is bound to repeat it.

IPad will see in the Flash? The future may, but Steve Jobs to open to the Adobe’s conditions have been satisfied in the circumstances under which it will appear (yes, the two may now have at the negotiating table a DVD to iPad converters) , these conditions were, in addition to stability and performance to solve the current problem (in principle, this problem is not the problem), the most important thing is not Adobe and Apple have a commercial conflict of interest , Apple must be a commitment, which, For Adobe, it will be a tough choice.
