I think for the iphone version of iPlayer the video is streamed via H264 and not via flash, which is why the video is very smooth and looks great.

I don't care about flash on a portable device, youtube and iplayer both work well on the iPhone. A lot of other flash sites have set sizes for their flash media, usually optimised around laptop / desktop screen size.

I just hope from this version of Flash they finally do something about the performance on Mac's. Visiting flash sites on a mac is stupid, it requires a lot of processing power for such a simple task, which zaps battery life and slows down other processes.
