Seems that Adobe is being most foolish in the mobile Apple world. Compared to that foolishness, the Nokia stuff seems tiny...
Apple has completely c*ckblocked Adobe from their mobile software ecosystem. The story goes that Jobs begged Adobe for support on iPhone 1.0 and he was snubbed...

Now Jobs made sure that no Adobe codes can squeak through his ecosystem by putting legal blocks in the Apple's Developers Agreement: all interpreter/interpreted codes has to get Apple's approval before they're let through the golden sh*t gate.
