You've got to love this quote (and not so subtle dig) from Google's keynote today at Mobile World Congress: "The line is blurring between mobile phones and desktop computing ... one of our main goals when we embarked on smartphones at Google was to really mirror the desktop web browsing experience - but for many of you and you know who you are - there's been a critical component missing - Flash!"
Google Confirms Flash On Phones

Well it seems like Android will never be able to overtake the iPhone because
of their buggy multi touch hardware/SDK. If Google had a top notch OS and
SDK like the iPhone OS then you wouldn't need to leverage Flash for mobile.
Why have a third party company/development environment for your phone when
everything you can imagine can be done natively....via the iPhone OS / SDK.
No need to learn Java nor ActionScript. Objective-C is way faster than both of
the aforementioned languages anyway.

Thank you Google. Not only are you more agile - you're also smarter!

google should use the marketing "it's not *like* the internet on your phone, it is the internet"

@Teddy - supporting Flash does not mean you exclude doing things natively. Supporting it opens up a huge amount of content and designers/developers can use established tools to produce content and apps like they have in the past.
