Adobe Hits Eleven on the Irony Scale

By | Published: September 30, 2008

I learn from Cali Lewis via her twitter feed that Adobe are talking about developing a version of Flash for the iPhone.

Paul Betlem, Sr. Director of Engineering at Adobe Systems confirmed that Adobe is working on Flash for iPhone. He was speaking at the Flash On the Beach Conference and said, “My team is working on Flash on the iPhone, but it’s a closed platform.”

Am I the only person to find it deeply ironic that Adobe should complain that the iPhone is a closed platform when their own web platform ‘Flash’ is closed, and they have no intention of opening it up.

Welcome to our world of pain Adobe.
