    also these js runtimes are just alternatives. it will be several years before they can compete with what a browser plug-in can do with regards to hardware accelleration, multi-threading, peripheral device input, and things like that. when you write one of these plug-ins (which i have), you pretty much have full access to the os's api, so you're not constrained to the limitations of a client-side scripting technology.

    • point being, nobody, even adobe themselves, will be completely supplanting the plug-in technology with this.SteveJobs
    • but it could supplant a significant share, can't it?kpl
