I can't believe you would actually argue with philly and others about wether or not the content they want to view is considered neccessary

And anyway, I haven't said not having Flash on the iPad isn't a problem for anyone. I know that some people need and want Flash. However, in a lot of cases, alternative content (often more detailed) is available to those people who choose to use an iPad. By missing a Flash video, you could end up actually being better informed.

What is all this +"extremely valuable content in Flash"+ you mention?
As a web user of almost 20 years, and a web (inc. Flash) developer since 1997 I can't really think of anything I would class as +"extremely valuable+" - and certainly nothing that can't be had elsewhere in an alternative form... The vast majority of Flash stuff is advertising, promotional or games. Truly valuable content is information and news - both readily available in non-Flash form.
No way could it be that I like the thousands of others who have posted here simply want Flash to run on our device.
God forgive me for signing up to a forum supplied by the company which I purchased from and asking for a missing feature.
for every time you say you don't need it, I have the rigt to say that I do need it.
Flash is vector based and was originally conceived by Macromedia

I checked all your links on the iPad and looked around for alternative content on the iPad by following links and doing Google searches. I viewed the Flash videos on my Mac (obviously) so that I could fairly comment on exactly what I was missing by using the iPad. As it turned out, the information that was available to the iPad was more informative than the specific links you posted. If you were Googling information you wouldn't reach those non-working pages directly. As you mentioned, you "stumbled" across those particular non-working pages whilst looking through the web-sites with the other information on.
But we probably just use the internet in different ways. Personally, I rarely watch informational videos as they are often poorly produced, badly scripted and take far too long to get the information across. A piece of text can be quickly skimmed at a glance and provide more information in a few seconds, instead of having to sit and watch a video for minutes.
