Interesting write up regarding Apple's (lack of) support for Flash.
"Is Apple's snubbing Flash all about money or a sign of things to come?"

Q: What I'm not missing from the lack of flash support?
A: The many flash banner ads that could be better experienced through animation

For what it is, portable media device. yes. Its not for photoshop and illustrator etc. Of course, what they need to do now is build the next top of the range Mac in the style of an oldskool designers tilting desk.

It is a fucking big iPod Touch. Whoever wished they could have a larger iPod Touch, will be able to get one. Most websites and ie. QBN notes will be more bearable on it than on regular iPhone/iPod.
People with fat fingers. Older people. Whoever.
It will sell in millions. What else is there to add?

Thinking about it, would the experience of using a flash website on the iPad be that good? right now there is no way to leverage the experience through touch controls and flash. If the iphone and iPad did have flash, i bet a bunch of sites would seem "broken" and difficult to navigate.

For me, not so much really but I thought the iPad would be good for self-publishing books if iTunes was opened to everyone but I never thought about photo books. That would be great.
The app store is open to all who want to produce an application for the iphone/ipod touch, iTunes is open to all music publishers, now it should be open to folks who want to publish books of any kind and also other media including movies/shorts/etc.
- if it came with flash then any competent UI person could make a kick ass UI for reading mags.sherm
