Flash on Apple’s AppStore is GO!
Whoa, didn’t see this coming (this soon). Apple has issued an statement regarding changes to the sections restricting Apps to be developed using 3rd party tools, such as Flash.
This is good news indeed. Not that I’m going to use Flash to develop any games for the iPhone (it’s still way too slow to do anything decent), but it’s definitely good to see that Apple is loosening it’s grip on the store and let developers choose how they want to create their apps.
From Apple’s statement:
We are continually trying to make the App Store even better. We have listened to our developers and taken much of their feedback to heart. Based on their input, today we are making some important changes to our iOS Developer Program license in sections 3.3.1, 3.3.2 and 3.3.9 to relax some restrictions we put in place earlier this year.
In particular, we are relaxing all restrictions on the development tools used to create iOS apps, as long as the resulting apps do not download any code. This should give developers the flexibility they want, while preserving the security we need.

Or maybe the iPhone harware is too slow to create anything decent with Flash
Nah, the iPhone 4′s hardware is decent enough
