i was expecting this to come along a little further down the road. good shit.

What I am waiting for is the new thing from Adobe that allows apps to be built using Flash. Should be soon.

[burntfilm]

imagine how much bandwidth people would use if you could view flash files on your iPhone? porn alone would probably bring AT&T to a crawl

Given how technology and the bandwidth backbone has evolved, I wouldn't be surprised if the infrastructure keeps pace with content demand...

about time actually! hope this won't be a back door though

[Grzejnick]

Thats great news, finally Iphone will be more usefully for me

[Jakke PNG]

Wow. I thought it would have supported flash earlier... maybe US products all lag behind a bit.

I definitely agree.

The report does not go as far as to claim what other U.S. carriers could offer the iPhone. But a source allegedly told the Web site that AT&T is "tired of taking the heat" for poor reception from iPhone users. In short, the report claims, AT&T officials believe the iPhone is hurting the company's image, and they are no longer interested in having exclusive access to Apple's handset.

"Inside of AT&T, we are hearing that the iPhone is causing more trouble than ever before," the report said. "On some level, having the iPhone is hurting AT&T's image. Because they are the only company to carry it, and it's such a data hog, it's largely to blame for AT&T's network troubles. We don't remember hearing about AT&T's 'horrible network' before the iPhone--do you?"

great news - thx for sharing

[StaceyJo]

Good stuff. Thanks,

[halfpint]

Now that is good news

[slapass]

They did have a horrible network before the iPhone. My friend works at ATT and I have been a long time user. They always have had poor reception and drop zones. They have actually gotten a lot better since they started selling the iPhone.

For certain mobile phone tech, US lags a few months in terms of adoption.

heck, just finding reception alone brings at&t to a crawl
lol
duke

[bhappy]

hmm

ran that code on the device.....veeeeery slow. I'd wait for native flash before betting high on this.

[Adam X]

remember all the Fewest Dropped Calls commercials and billboards?
POOF!

what a joke..

I get drops almost every day...
theres no way they could handle Flash if it were soon available.. bandwidth would skyrocket and lock their system up completely.

[WWC-Pajio]

interesting.. it would be nice if we can create apps with flash tho
