It only makes sense for Apple to support Flash if there's a clear competitive pressure to do so. And that pressure only exists in theory (well, beta) right now.
It would be interesting if Apple were to mitigate their risk by doing their own implementation of Flash or a functional subset thereof (if they aren't working on this already). With fewer constraints concerning requirements (for example, that the code be cross platform, or that it implement the full spec), and full access to iPhone code, they could probably come up with a better solution than Adobe, expose functionality the current Flash specification does not (accelerometer?), while avoiding external dependencies.

Don't care if iPhone/iPad is 1st or 3rd place, I just hope flash dies the utter death it deserves.
