Apple wasn't right or wrong - they were SUCCESSFUL in getting flash killed...

Haha, so Adobe - having released Flash for Android, were forced by

something Apple did to end development for it? They really wanted to,

they saw great usage for it and for some reason - Apple and the iPhone

invalidated all that? Is this seriously your take on it?

Wasn't Flash on Android supposed to kill the iPhone - not the other

way around? Wasn't this the magic bullet, the One Big Feature? What

did Apple do to force not only Adobe to end development on their

mobile Flash plugin - but also force Google to exclude it from mobile

Chrome and Microsoft from excluding it from mobile Explorer?

assuming you really want an answer Mr.Wingtip shoes apple did their best to have html5 considered seriously early enough before all the lemmings realized what a p.o.s flash is

You never encountered situation when you explicitly told someone about a problem and got something like "Oh yeah, I knew something was not quite right but I could not put a finger on it!" response?

If so you are probably still in kindergarten talking to folks with 50 word dictionaries.

Not everyone is versatile enough to explain in fine details the shape and smell of the sand grain in their shoe but apparently iSteve had no problem putting this in plain English for the rest of the folk to comprehend the problem with flash given that it's not a sand grain, but a rather large unwieldy boulder that could have easily became adobe tombstone had they not bailed in time.

let me know if that was a bit too fast for ya
