So Steve Jobs has completely screwed Adobe over their “Slow” and “non-open” Flash technology and have dropped it from all the Apple products. In reply, Adobe made a smart move by banning Apple to ever use Flash on their gadgets, but what about those thousands of people out there who love an iPad and want to see flash on it? Well, we have got a solution for them!

SmokeScren is the answer for the flash problem of iPhones and iPads, as it would make your iDevice compatible for Flash videos, so you can enjoy Hulu on iPad, or play farmville directly from facebook. You won’t even need to jailbreak your device for that.

According to the official statement by SmokeScreen founders:

“It runs entirely in the browser, reads in SWF binaries, unzips them (in native JS), extracts images and embedded audio and turns them in to base64 encoded data:uris, then stitches the vector graphics back together as animated SVG.”

Initial results of SmokeScreen have not been quite satisfactory and there were many glitches in the video during testing. The device was found quite less-responsive while playing flash videos. As this solution is based on JavaScript, the slow results were expected, but chances are that it will be improved with the arrival of next version.
