I have an ebook that needs a flash player to play? Is there anyway that that next update will be a le to read this type of format

No.

Flash is never coming to ios.

Adobe has discontinued mobile flash for all devices.

Take a look at bluefire reader.

the most you can do is look for a browser that can play flash. No idea if it'll open an e-book though.

Type Flash in the Search Bar and read about it. Flash has never, nor will it ever be included in any Apple iOS (iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch) device. There are apps which will play flash content, such as Puffin, iSwifter and Photon, to name three. Buy the paid version, not the lite or free version.

It's hit or miss and like Skydiver said, they may not work with an e-book which requires flash. The good news is that Photon will play a lot of flash content you would not be able to play without this app. It just may not however, play the flash content on this ebook.

Did you get the ebook from the iTunes store, or another book source. If the book does require Flash, the store shouldn't be selling it for the iPad. Contact the book source.

Wow, are you serious?

That really ***, I have been playing with mine and can't believe I can't use 3/4 of the sites I like on it.

My Android tab runs Flash just fine, and has done so for 2 years. Are you suggesting one day Adobe is going to break in my house and uninstall it?

I don't understand this at all, it seems at every turn I try to use this thing like my android tab and I simply can't, all I've found so far to actually be able to do is use iTunes for everything... pretty lame and something I'm not going to do when I can get this content free on all my other devices.

This is truly a shame. I was really hoping I was just doing something wrong. Glad I only spent $50 on it at a garage sale.

PDF Reader Pro works well for non iTunes ebooks

And luckily you can sell it for much more than $50. And move on.

It won't be removed from your current Android device but future Android devices won't have flash.
