Some ex-Adobe engineers weight in on the whole Flash on iPhone matter.

A "Hello World." application, written in Adobe's toolchain, would result in an 8meg app for the iPhone. The same application using Apple's toolchain is "no longer than a few KB." Ouch. But then again that's what cross-compiling does to your apps.
