Sources close to Adobe reveal that the company is preparing to sue Apple within a few weeks, according to ITWorld.
Usually I write about security here, but Apple's iron-bound determination to keep Adobe Flash out of any iWhatever device is about to blow up in Apple's face. Sources close to Adobe tell me that Adobe will be suing Apple within a few weeks.
It was bad enough when Apple said, in effect, that Adobe Flash wasn't good enough to be allowed on the iPad. But the final straw was when Apple changed its iPhone SDK (software development kit) license so that developers may not submit programs to Apple that use cross-platform compilers.
Other companies like Novell's MonoTouch group are "reaching out to Apple for clarification on their intention, and believe there is plenty of room for course-correction prior to the final release of the 4.0 SDK."
It's doubtful that Apple will alter the new SDK agreement; rather, its likely that they will leave the current wording so they can approve or deny cross-compiled apps at will.
