    Honesty Boz you have taken your hatred of Apple for not supporting Flash to kind of ridiculous extremes. Apple is going to shut down the internet? Not let you download programs? lolz

    Anyway the example above was a decision by a single company, which so far I haven't seen replicated anywhere else. If anything, the trend is to move away from the app model and build web apps for mobile users using open standards. Example is the new Financial Times app which circumvents the app store and offers the same experience via the browser in HTML5. Facebook is about to launch an entire dev platform based on this approach.
