What exactly do you base any of this on? Because I am not sure any of it is true.
Adobe updates its products regularly, including bug-fixes. Have you ever looked at the Adobe updates pages?
Here is an example of the updates page for Acrobat Pro, which is fairly typical for Adobe's products.
For what it's worth, Adobe generally seems to respond much quicker than Apple (which is notoriously slow at fixing OS security holes, including
taking 6 months to fix a major Java vulnerability last year).
Adobe has it's problems, but they generally make good products and this all-out war, just because Apple has a major shortcoming in iPad's browser, is unfair and unwarranted.
