whoever created the "irony" tag is spot on.

Mr. Jobs does a great job of explaining why he doesn't like Flash. But he doesn't explain why he doesn't trust iPhone users to decide for themselves whether they want long battery life or access to farmville on any given day. (Today, by the way, I chose short battery life but full access to all my IM accounts because I am working offsite...that's what freedom lets me do.)
you want yo know why he won't allow you to have free will and choice this is why

On a 3Ghz Pentium 4 it used 100% CPU... don't think Flash has anything to worry about if this is anything to go by!

I personally don't care for Flash but I do care about choice and don't believe for one second that the reasons listed by Jobs are the reasons why he is so against Flash, or why he is so against cross-compiler tools.

Rather, it's all about control and money - Flash can download code from the web but if you're going to run code on your iPhone you'll be buying and downloading it from his App Store and not getting it for free.

I have never seen some many b***s in one pace of letter in my life.

Pure FUCTS guys no BULL***S

1. Flash is not open.
Go there http://wonderfl.net/ and build your swf without any spend bloody penny, download final swf share with others or Download Flex SDK and Flash Develop, you can get very robust developer platform for free.

2. Security - show me one hack done via Flash that cause any problem for you from past decade. I had a lot with normal html/php websites never flash.

3. Flash can not work on IPhone. So, apart of the fact that IShit is just rubbish device somebody proved is able to run Android on it and as you know Android is able to play Flash...

4. "Flash has not performed well on mobile devices."
that's why I am running my project to break this myth Flaemo and this is not even Flash 10 where:

5. He is talking about roll over functionality and lack of tuch screen support where again Flaemo prove he is wrong.

6. Sorry guys no offense but many of applications here and I bet thousands on IShit perform worst than once again Flaemo made in flash.

7. Video.. that's interesting that you YouTbe changed stream format some times ago to support low-band connection. Looks like because of 3th party apps running on IShit. Otherwise you could use low mobile-friendly quality on flash. For flash is available from medium and up only...

8. Flash was is and will be more cross platform than Apple inventions never had been, that's why Woz left.

9. Only Open thing in Apple is the door to the Apple sect.

10. Apple is dead from time when Steven Wozniak left this company who loved this stuff and loved build good devices rather business model. In fact his a father of Home personal Computer era. Read his biography and you can get your own assumption who really Steven Jobs is.

I know a lot of rubbish is around on network made in flash and there is no way to check all of this content in terms of development quality. Why? because is available? Open? yes. Same here. I had to reflash my N900 yesterday because of some identify software on devel repo cause system to damage. Should I blaim on this? No and never. Because Open Source its the last thing we have in today corporation-like IT world and it's our responsibility to defend our freedom in internet as well. If you don't like Flash just don't use it I don't care. But just ask yourself why, Because of Anti flash propaganda? urban legends? At least you have choice and you can check! Danger of what Apple deserve there is no choice there is only one true that every fun boy should follow.

P.S. Jobs you have no idea how many Woz funs hate you now.

Guys don't be fool, I really believe, especially here in open source community its harder to find close minded persons.

In Firefox, I can't get it past the initial screen. I press "A", I click on it, I do everything and nothing.

In IE8 it doesn't even appear at all.

Press Z.

IE6-8 doesn't support HTML5 as we all know Canvas in this case. Oops, IE9 currently doesn't too... That could be a problem for widespread HTML5 adoption

<offtopic> Wozniak is cool. I actually got an email from him years ago after reporting a black market software ring to the company he was working for at the time. Man I should have framed that thing... </offtopic>
