Good news for Google Phone buyers – they will get Adobe Flash support soon. iPhone users? Nope – you still have to wait. Flash support is an essential element of web browsing – especially with the host of proprietary Flash-based video players proliferating on the web.

Moreover, game sites employ Flash routinely and more and more consumers are using mobile devices for gaming.

There is obviously some tension between Adobe and Apple which needs to get resolved soon.

If the iPhone does not get Flash support, at some point it will definitely eat into sales.
