^totally agree.
my android phone plays flash video and can run flash sites. Maybe you can forgive apple for claiming the ipad 1 couldnt run flash, but the ipad 2 is EASILY powerful enough.
Saying their mobile devices wont support flash ever, because its to intensive / drains to much battery is bs. In a years time the tech will be twice as powerful and they will still be saying the same bs.
im surprised so many designers dont care about apples bullshit approach to flash. Designers should feel somewhat concerned that a company is actively trying to remove a very useful, very popular and very accessible web format, solely for their own profits and own agenda at the cost of professional flash developers losing work. Surely anyone in this industry feels slightly concerned by it.
Why should we give computer manufacturers the power to choose what formats we should be able to view? Thats ridiculous.

- It always felt foreign in a browser, like an implant. Nnever communicated with browser/JS/DOM wellraf
- It did give more freedom of expression and in the end was a better technology. I don't miss it a bitraf
- I trust Adobe much less than I trust Apple. I can stop using Apple, I am forced to use Adoberaf
