If the next great future of computing in the Cloud, as many pundits — not to mention Google — think, then the next great race is delivering that future via Rich Internet Applications. Right now, there are two major ways of doing this. The first involves using a proprietary, locked in technology (admittedly with increasing [...]
Honestly, its like one of those TV cop shows where the tip lines are finally thrown wide open and everyone and their alien-proof tinfoil hat starts flooding with the calls…
First up is Engadget bringing word that the Australian NDA box and the Gizmodo iPhone (Red) and related images mentioned previously are, to quote Elaine [...]
Like a moth to a flame or a Blackberry addict to email, I am drawn once again into the train wreck that is Flash on the iPhone. This time it’s courtesy one Robert X. Cringely, and it’s a brain bender!
Cringely says:
It seems obvious to me, however, that there is only one real reason why [rumors [...]
Confession: I’m suffering from extreme PFSD (Posting about Flash Stress Disorder). All this “will it” “won’t it” “please don’t let it” blog-pong has me cowering beneath my laptop. But I believe in facing my fears, real and absurd, so let’s see what Ars Technica has to report:
Adobe has announced a new initiative called Open Screen, [...]
We’ve covered the iPhone Flash saga ad nauseam here, but in an interesting post involving the technology itself, NetNewsWire developer Brent Simmons (via DaringFireball) shares some interesting error/crash logs highlighting the instability-adding benefits of Flash, and the rapid catchup of Microsoft’s copycat, Silverlight:
I’ve said it before — one of my favorite things about the iPhone [...]
Yup. Just when ya thought it was safe to read the interwebs again, Gizmodo (via BGR) brings word that — you guessed it! — Flash is coming to the iPhone!
“You heard it here first, people! The latest version of the iPhone 2.0 firmware that was just seeded to developers has a YouTube plugin for MobileSafari.app”
Well, [...]
Rumor gets reported there will be Flash on the iPhone. Rumor gets smashed. Rumor gets reported there will be unlimited music on the iPhone. Rumor gets smashed. Rinse and repeat.
What’s going on? Why aren’t we getting these stories straight?
Turns out maybe these stories weren’t meant to be gotten. Turns out maybe these stories were meant [...]
Will Flash come to the iPhone? Won’t it? Will it? Won’t it?
GearLive said yes. Adobe said maybe. El Jobso said too slow, too lite — where’s my middle?!. El Narayenso (er… Adobe’s CEO) said SD-OK! And… now Adobe clarifies that ambiguous yes with another maybe. Kinda:
“[T]o bring the full capabilities of Flash to the iPhone [...]
GearLive reported Flash for the iPhone was immanent. Adobe retorted that it was all up to Steve Jobs. His Steveness resorted to telling investors that Flash desktop was too big, Flash Lite was too small, and they were missing a product that was juuuusssst right.
Well, Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen hopes Apple’s newly released SDK will [...]
The internet in your pocket. That’s what Steve Jobs and Apple advertising have promised us since Macworld 2007. Not the watered-down WAP internet, the server-pre-rendered kinda-sorta-internet, or the stunted mobile internet. Just… the internet.
