But Nokia adopted Flash Lite 4-5 years ago, when Silverlight was just a *sparkle* in some Microsoft PM's eye as he thought about how they could have someting as popular as Flash for themselves! IMHO the iPhone is flawed as an internet browsing device while it doesn't support the most installed plug-in in the history of the web (and a flawed smartphone while it's not even 3G).

I smell Silverlight on this decision.
Oh, and Nokia adopted it, so Apple can say "the leader adopted it, so can we" without remorse.
