Adobe announced that Flash developers will finally be able to create iPhone-compatible Flash games. Flash CS5 (not release yet) will have a feature to export AS3 projects to native iPhone applications. This feature does not mean that the iPhone and iPod touch will be able to understand Flash files or that its Safari browser will be capable of running Flash movies, but it means that Flash developers will be able to use Flash CS5 to make native iPhone and iPod touch applications and games by using their existing ActionScript 3.0 skills.

View the Demonstration Video on Adobe. For developers the new tooling will be made available with the Flash Professional tool, the beta version will be available to download before the end of the year.
