For something as dynamic as farm ville, what is more likely is just porting a farm ville client to iPhone/iPad vs. painfully recreating it in HTML so it can work badly on a smartphone screen.

Ironically, this will likely go further to decrease the use of the Flash player than anything Adobe has ever done.
