Adobe Flash Professional CS5 will have an export for iPhone apps. Thus allowing games and application built using Flash being compiled natively for the iPhone and being distributed via AppStore.

This means in contrast to the Palm Pre, Apple’s iPhone will still not be able to run Flash based internet pages.
