In comments made at Apple's recent shareholder meeting, CEO Steve Jobs said that the iPhone doesn't support Flash because it runs too slowly on the device to be useful.

On the iPhone:
- It won't have Flash for the forseeable future (speed of processor issues)

An interesting column written by Steve Jobs to shout out his anti-DRM thoughts! DRM hasn't worked in the past and it won't work in the future. His solution: we got three choices. We can either continue on the path we're on now, license out FairPlay, or destroy DRM once and for all...
