There you have it. The internet in your hands... except flash.

Quote:

Jobs adds that Apple got people to ditch floppy disks and CD, will get people to ditch Flash

In the wake of the iPad launch, Apple CEO Steven P. Jobs launched into a cross-country media tour. Even as his much ballyhooed tablet was being picked apart by critics who questioned its ability to serve as a competent eBook reader, Mr. Jobs visited The Wall Street Journal and other major news industry players in an effort to boost the device's public perception.

However, Mr. Jobs found the folks at the WSJ were asking him the same question, a question that had infuriated him time after time -- "Why doesn't the i<device> have Flash?"

I can feel with Apple Steve

It is not easy to buck the trend and be successful at the same time.

Just dawned on me that the current HTML 5 standard allows transferring and viewing videos "without" the need of flash!

Why support this for iPhone but not iPad?
