Today at the Adobe Town Hall session here at Flash on the Beach, a participant asked the Adobe panel if there were plans for Flash on the iPhone and Paul Betlem confirmed that Adobe is indeed working on it. This has been the talk of the conference so far - and the one new 'sneak peak' that has been revealed this week.
However, Paul was quick to mention that this comes with one cavat - since Apple decides what runs on their platform, they could ultimately veto the platform add-on and kill the project. It should be noted that if Apple agrees, Adobe will apparently have the player ready "very shortly".
The big question that now remains: what version of the Flash Player will it be? FlashLite? Flash Player 8/9/10? I would think with all the games they have running on the iPhone that they could get Flash Player 10 running pretty well. Or, version 9 at the very least.
You can read more details from other bloggers who are also attending the conference, such as Flash Magazine and read all of the "me too" posts from industry news sources on Techmeme.

I promise to post a recap of all of day one's (Monday's) sessions tomorrow, but I believe this warrants its own quick post:
It was announced today that Flash on the Beach will hold a conference in Miami, Florida on April 5-8 2009! Ticket sales will start in November. There has already been a lot of buzz around the announcement since this morning, so it looks like things are off to a good start.
I, for one, will welcome Flash on the Beach coming state-side if nothing else for the better exchange rates. It was announced today that out of the 1050 attendees, only 12 were from the states. Don't think anyone is wondering why! But really, this is a very exciting announcement - and everyone back in the states should be excited that there is another awesome conference option coming soon.

Has it already been a year since last year's Flash on the Beach conference? Yes, it has -- time to get my schedule in order!
If the conference is half as quality as last year, I'll be happy. Not to mention that this year I'll know a lot more people attending, so if you are one of them be sure to stop by and say hello.
