There is probably a case to be made that AIR apps could be used to compile down to obj-c. Alchemy I think might be a start in this with LLVM but this new pathway to the iPhone is nice. I am using Unity3D iPhone and OpenGL directly as well as excellent engines for 2D like cocos2d-iphone (cloned in obj-c from python cocos2d), but it would be great to port over lots of flash content into the iphone even if it has to be compiled native and cross-compiled. Unity3D iPhone uses Mono and does this. I think the future has lots of cross-compiling and projects like Unladen Swallow with Python so you can write in productive fast languages but have the speed of gcc, that is the next area that will open it up. @marcus, yes I think Adobe should have.

Apparently, in the haXe docs 'flash 9' means 'flash 9+' or AVM2, which flash 9 was the first player version to use. Of course this isn't relevant to the iPhone platform, where you'd be using some C library for 3D (OpenGL?) but I thought it's worth pointing out.
