Does anyone have any experience having an iPhone application talk to a Flash app over Wifi? I am looking for simple projects that shows a string going to and from. I know there is Bonjour, etc. but networking is a big topic that I
am not well-versed in (yet).


I don't know much about Flash, but I'm assuming that, like most sandboxed web content, a Flash widget can't open a listening socket. So it's going to have to be the iPhone that listens and the Flash code that connects to it. The problem then is how it discovers the iPhone's IP address. Bonjour would be the usual answer, but I don't think there are any Flash APIs for it. Without that, you pretty much have to resort to kludges like reading the IP address off the iPhone's screen and typing it into a Flash textfield.

{macnetworkprog would be a more appropriate list for this, btw.}
