There’s no doubt that the Apple iPad (and most newer iPhones and iPod touches) can run Flash. A new open source project called Frash will allow iPad users to experience Flash in the Web browser as Adobe begins demonstrating its own efforts to port Flash 10.1 to the newly released Android 2.2 “Froyo”.
How to Play Flash Content on iPad Whether Steve Jobs Likes it or Not
Flash on iPad ? Steve Jobs says, “No, it can’t happen because flash is not meant for its touchscreen technology.” But he is proven wrong by a developer with his new program, the Frash. With Frash, he was able to run flash on an iPad. This is the same developer who brought us the Spirit jailbreak decided to port the mobile Flash plug-in for Android to Apple’s iOS.
He has managed to get Adobe Flash content to run on a jailbroken iPad, using a compatibility layer. He has managed this by porting Android Flash runtime to iPad. Comex is calling the port of the Android Flash runtime for the iPhone as Frash. The code is described as “extremely beta” and may not meet all the functionality of Flash on supported platforms, but frash has been demonstrated running Flash applications on the Safari browser natively.
Okay, so you have to jailbreak your iPad to use Frash. But if you don’t want to miss all those cool flash games, may consider jailbreaking the iPad. It may even work the same way on iPhone but only on the 3GS and iPhone4.

Frash won’t be able to address the issues that has prevented Apple from allowing Flash on the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch but it seems to be the best bet for users who are missing Flash.

You are right. This news (about Frash) is gonna cheer up Apple users; but I doubt if it will cheer up Apple (and Steve Jobs) himself!

Its “BUSINESS”, my dear friend

Probably. For starter, they should seriously consider selling jailbroken products (iPhones, iPads) at non-jailbroken price!
Apple generally likes to have control over their products (Mac’s are the perfect example – they sell a small line of pre-configured computers). Still, I always considered it strange that you couldn’t play flash within a web browser on a portable Apple product (after all, flash makes up huge proportions of the web today).
