The tussle between Apple and Adobe over the Flash multimedia platform may have reached the point of no return. The war of words between the two companies offers little to no chance for Apple to allow Flash on its platform in the near future. One of the biggest stakeholders in...

honestly, i can tell you that with flash for mac WITH H.264 HARDWARE ACCELERATION (in the new gala beta, only on 10.6.3, on certain mac laptops one of which i own), flash video decoding in hd on youtube is still MUCH slower than html5, which uses hardware decoding as well, though obviously a better implementation. flash can suck it. I want it to be open, and up to apple or whoever makes the hardware to make a low level hardware decoding API usable universally in html5 without even saying decode in hardware in the page source. it should just be part of a standard implementation.

more html5 peeps we get the better seeing as steve doesnt want flash on apple products more or less. although i dont really miss having flash too much so not that big a deal to me at the moment

I'm waiting on the Nokia N8 before I commit myself, that comes with Flash as standard, and allegedly one of the best cam sensors yet on a mobile.
Getting tired of Apple locking everything down, shall await the next couple of months to make a decision mind. Just my views :) -
"It should just be part of a standard implementation" YES, exactly! you Flash haters are finally getting it! If not standard like it is on every other Mac or PC out there, at least make it optional on the iPhone/iPad for those who want it now and think it's stupid to wait for this HTML5 transition to take over, which it obviously isn't anytime soon!

I love these major media corporations coming out and supporting their own ideals. Obviously they feel that Flash is the standard and think Steve Jobs is just another retard with no concept of what the consumer really wants. I'm sure there are those who hate flash and will support anything Steve says, but come on, for those who can do without it, apparently these major Media Corps think otherwise and can do without HTML5. That says a lot.

and tell me, don't you think that would just delay the HTML5 transition?
I think so. -
