Adobe working on Flash support for the iPhone

In Adobe’s Quarterly Conference Call that took place earlier this week, they confirmed that they are working on a version of Flash that will work on the iPhone. You can see the full transcript of the call, but here’s the part that got my attention:

Thanks. Just a quick one on Acrobat 9. I noticed that your — at least some of the foreign language versions were shipping about eight days after English. Can you just remind us — is that typical with an Acrobat release that we see major foreign language versions ship pretty quickly after the English version? And then just to follow-up was on the Apple iPhone 3G — any update on Flash support within that device? Thanks.

So on the first question, we don’t typically give date by date of when we are shipping different language versions of our products. Clearly depending on when in the quarter we ship English, you might see some of the major foreign languages also ship in the quarter. And as I said earlier in my remarks, we do expect to see English, French, German, and Japanese for Acrobat ship in this quarter. And that depends more on quarter boundaries than anything else.

With respect to the iPhone, we are working on it. We have a version that’s working on the emulation. This is still on the computer and you know, we have to continue to move it from a test environment onto the device and continue to make it work. So we are pleased with the internal progress that we’ve made to date.
