[Speex-dev] Fwd: [Vorbis-dev] Flash Vorbis player

[zmorris at mac.com]

Hey everyone, I saw over on the Vorbis-Dev list that they ported Ogg  
Vorbis over to Flash.  Just wondering if this would be possible for  
Speex, and also if you have considered an iPhone implementation.  I  
know that Apple is really hesitant to anger AT&T, but with Google's  
Android, VOIP on cell phones is just around the corner.  Ironically  
voice bandwidth is set to go way down because of it, so I never could  
understand why cell phone companies were so resistant to it.  And  
Adobe just ported Flash to the iPhone so that's just around the corner  
too.  Here is the message:
