On the day one keynote at Adobe Max 2009, Adobe announced that Flash Professional CS5 (sign up to be notified when the public beta is available) will include support for creating stand-alone applications for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch. You heard it right, Adobe Team have brought the Flash Platform to the iPhone OS for applications. In fact some of the applications are already on the Apple AppStore for you to download:

  1. Chroma Circuit
  2. FickleBlox
  3. Finger Paint
  4. Just Letters
  5. Red Hood
  6. That Roach Game
  7. Trading Stuff

Adobe provides developer community with a compiler to help package SWF content into a native iPhone application aligned with Apple’s legal terms.

I’m really excited with this ability to target the iPhone with Flash projects. I hope I can start developing iPhone Apps as soon as possible!
