“a third party layer of software [to] come between the platform and the developer.”
“Flash was created during the PC era –- for PCs and mice,”
“but the mobile era is about low power devices, touch interfaces and open web standards –- all areas where Flash falls short.”

No its not what happens when your out in the wilderness… at least I hope it isn’t! Redsn0w is a windows and MAC software for jailbreaking and unlocking your iPhone. It comes in a long line of pieces of software for unlocking letting you install your own software and jailbreaking to allow the user to use any mobile phone provider. Apple have continue to evolve the protection software to prevent users from doing this but it appears 3.0 has been broken wide open days after its official release. http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/126908912/redsn0w-in-june
