Mobile Flash? Not good Enough, says Steve

Jobs, in a meeting Tuesday, opened up a little about what's going on with the Flash situation.

Apaprently, Mobile Flash just plain isn't good enough for him - too weak to really use the iPhone's power, and not enough features. Full Flash, however, is too MUCH for the iPhone.

Basically, he'd like Adobe to create what he calls the "missing product in the middle" before he puts Flash on the iPhone.

In other words, it may or may not be a while.

"Full Flash, however, is too MUCH for the iPhone."

Doesn't make any sense! WTF! Jobs! I want flash period. I'll be satisfied when you fix this damn problem.

The phone is amazing. I would say the best phone ever but we are missing the basics ... MMS - FLASH - Video. Whats taken so freaking long. People are working hard with a limited or unofficial SDK. Truthfully, This whole unlock issue is a problem and even a bill is being passed to stop this crap. Wake up and make the phone ... the iphone an unlimited tool for creativity.

Yea but porting mobile flash will take valuable time and programmers away from the flash Jobs Wants!...

I think these are all excuses so they can delay everything.
I mean - where the hell did the SDK go? Huh? End of Feb My *****.

Now they want to port flash.. Ha. They'll probably port mobile flash and make it to be some BIG thing when its just crappy mobile Flash.
But then Say that so called 'BIG' thing took how many months to port.

F***ing Apple. Always making Excuses.

Leave it to Jobs to say screw you when it comes to something you want to see. This ticks me off.

Since Jobs came back to Apple that has always been his mantra. He will do what he thinks is best for the customer, whether the customer agrees or not. If he doesn't think flash should be there, you're not going to get it, and that's final. He's like a kid playing king of the hill, in a megalomaniac sort of way.

I used flash on my Treo (although only up to version 5 swf's) and I quite enjoyed it. But Steve doesn't think Flash lite provides enough enrichment for iPhone users, so we can't have it. Mommy knows best, so we should just sit down and shut up.

That guy is a jacka$$. He has more excuses than my ex-wife. As long as websites have flash, we need something to view it with. There are a lot of weaknesses due to it's size and design. Just give us the best option available and work on improving it.

You said it best. Man do I not miss the Treo's small screen for mobile internet browsing. Even PIE didn't make it better. Haha

How about sticking to something simple like MMS or copy and paste or adding multiple pictures to one email. Is that simple enough for him? I wish i can meet him in a dark alley some where
