I can some up this entire thread right now, so no one else need to bother replying.



Apple makes the BEST everything.


If Apple does not use something, it is not the best.


No other company's creations are or ever will be as good and definetely not better than Apple's because Apple is the best.


It is impossible for any idea, product, or software to be any good or of any value unless Apple has created it, or uses it.


Apple as a company, and their products are the only electric devices that are worth owning or worth building.


Apple is always right, honest, and never seeks profit, everything they do, create and sell is strictly for the purpose of bettering humanity, and making as little profit as possible in order to only continue to create things.

I am not even going to take the time to read through 1/100 of these posts if the first 2 pages indicates the intelligence to the subject matter.


My good friends at Adobe are now focusing on the development of HTML5. Mobile flash is DEAD. They will support browsers for a few years and fade it out completly. There will be new products though (write this down, take a picgture) Do 5 minutes of research. You do not need an insider in the industry to tell you this.


Flash is and has been a performance hog.

Flash is a battery killer.

Flash is a major reason mac's and PC browsers CRASH.

Flash has had known security issues.

Flash requires plugins to be installed.

Flash had a premium price tag for developers tools. Why pay to create content when you can use open standards?

Adobe has been given the opportunities for years to fix their issues though they just couldnt get their mobile product lean and efficient.

Flash roots of developement in the early 90's PC era tethered the UI experience to a PC and Mouse experience with power hungry requirements. Adobe should have focused on complete product reboot vs digging in and trying to adapt a time era product to current needs.


HTML5 video support surpassed over 63%+ of the video market share. H.264 is the #1 codec for both HTML5 and Flash both use Apples codec. HTML5 over the 2 years has made flash very obsolete. There are slow developers to convert.. as with change.. some lacky web people are slow.. Mobile is huge to the future of connectivity and with Flash being removed from the scene, developers will have to move their site's web apps over to HTML5.


Xoom and Playbook are a tremendous failiure. When your device sells 100-200K units over MONTHS in the market place.. Apple sold 300K in 1 day. Purchasing a product that doesnt even have a native email application and RIM not holding up to promised updates should be an indicator that they see their products' life cycle ended at start. They are attempting to not have 200K playbook (well this is what retilers purchased) consumers toss their devices in the air by supporting non RIM Apps as they will put a nail in the Playbook this year. Bye-Bye Playbook, you were never known.


Android tablets are struggling too to garner sales. Do some research as to why and we can talk about the fragmentation, lack of support and followup development by manufacturers of liscensed custom android OS's, struggling revenue and quality in the market place, spam and security ect. ect... You should have an indicator when 99% of the tablets in the market place are 1-2 major OS versions behind.

You should post in full sentences that explain what you are writingabout...

really explain android

You want me to really explain Android?

You don't know what it is?

A good simple explanation is here -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)


As far as Adobe abandoning Flash for mobile devices, little bit slow, are ya'?

That's okay.


-> http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2011/11/flash-focus.html

"Our future work with Flash on mobile devices will be focused on enabling Flash developers to package native apps with Adobe AIR for all the major app stores. We will no longer continue to develop Flash Player in the browser to work with new mobile device configurations (chipset, browser, OS version, etc.) following the upcoming release of Flash Player 11.1 for Android and BlackBerry PlayBook. We will of course continue to provide critical bug fixes and security updates for existing device configurations."


adobe is working on marketing software just for apple users

What software is Adobe working on for Apple users (in relation to Flash)?

Apparantly you love to sit around and watch meaningles videos all day on a tablet, instead of getting actual work done, as you would have realize my comment was in regards to the native E-Mail client still not available for the PlayBook. Obviously Flash is a much more important tool for getting things done in the real world. I can't recall a single time I needed Flash on my iPad, so I am still at a loss as to why you and a couple of others created accounts on here JUST to argue about Flash.


You have already stated you don't have an iPad. So why are you here? Why troll around these message boards arguing with EVERYONE who simply tries to answer a question for a user here?


There is no Flash, there never will be Flash, 99.999% of the iPad users don't care, and you don't like it. Get over it already. Geesh. Find a new hobby.
