^ good argument ukit!
While I may agree with you, you are assuming that there is no market for that middle area, where things doesn't need to be "too good" or "not good enough"

Does that mean I have to re-install the Flash players I deleted on all my browsers?

i think Adobe's (read: Steve Jobs) intention is to train a generation of Cocoa developers who will be writing tomorrows OS X software.
Giving them an easy-out with AS3 could completely destroy any chance of this.
This isn't the business strategy they are communicating, but I promise, this is the intent. It's very clever and Microsoft should be afraid.

And obviously HP has no such incentive for not supporting Flash. In fact, it's very lucrative for them to support it.

Of course theflashblog.com is going to say flash isn't dead.

@clearThoughts so far the lack of Flash hasn't impaired Apple's ability of selling massive amounts of iPhones and iPod Touch, and you are right, Flash isn't dead but for some people isn't a must have
- but Android has caught up to the iPhone OS's market share ALREADY. think about that.zarkonite
- that's because 20 phones on 5 carriers, offer Android and 2 that use iOS. Also only the latest Androids can "run" flashrusty_ace
- so what? LOL.. that's why Apple sucks.. they are closed up. That's why Android kicks ass.Boz

Yeah - maybe flash could fade out a bit, but Adobe will come up with a similar platform to allow Flash developers to make apps for tablets.
What about this?
Adobe Air on a Dell Tablet- Flash CS5 is supposed to compile .ipa files that will run on iPhone OSernexbcn
- but they run like shit apparently, there are 4 games on the App Store developed with thaternexbcn
- and of those is mine.clearThoughts

Flash will kill the iphone app sales, in turn no flash. He will allow flash to make apps because he is still getting a cut from it.

BTW - not really post related, but I would like to add that Steve Balmer is a cunt
