Yeah, I'm actually surprised that this is only just now happening. Guess I'd assumed he'd managed to bump it off on all Apple platforms before he died.

Because it was not about going after Adobe or Flash. It was about the performance of the iPhone. He detailed this in his public letter to Adobe after he gave them 2 years to get it working and they failed. The letter was public because Adobe was crying about being shutout and making shit up. The fact is that Adobe never got Flash "working right" even on the Android platform which they had full access to every part of the hardware. "Working Right" means not draining the battery after a 30 minute video.
