Steve Jobs wasn't all that enthusiastic about Adobe's Flash on the iPhone, and what does that mean? It apparently means Adobe will just have to try harder, and that's exactly what they're doing. According to WSJ, Adobe will develop Flash for the iPhone. Yup, they're not going to use the existing Flash Lite; they're going to develop a new version (or tweak the existing one) especially for the iPhone.

Here's what Adobe's CEO, Shantanu Narayen had said about the Flash on the iPhone (surprising Adobe spokesman Ryan Stewart, who had no idea about this, in the process):

"We believe Flash is synonymous with the Internet experience, and we are committed to bringing Flash to the iPhone...We have evaluated (the software developer tools) and we think we can develop an iPhone Flash player ourselves."
