There are two reasons there is no Flash on iPhone, both mentioned above. Apple in general doesn't allow applications that execute foreign code into AppStore (there were exceptions though). They don't want to create a possibility to download apps from outside AppStore.
http://toucharcade.com/2009/06/2…The other reason is Flash is a resource hog. Not only it would drain the battery but it would slow down the device.
Eventually other phones will have Flash and iPhone will get faster - Apple will have to budge. There might be usability issues though: it makes little sense to view a lot of Flash sites on a screen that small.
