But, their 'stance' against Flash is stupid, considering how many people use it.
It would be like some guy with a hydrogen car saying how stupid gasoline is, when the fact is that hydrogen isn't currently a viable option.
Much like HTML5 is a GREAT idea, but not currently a viable option for the whole world.
In other news, Popular Science confirmed that environmentalists are arrogant s.

The truth of the matter, not that anyone is going to bother to listen, is that Flash is an external plugin for the browser, and it runs like a deep fried turd in OS X, so the likelihood of it running on iOS is pretty slim.
This is as much Adobe's fault as it is Apple's. If Adobe would build a decent product that wouldn't beat the living tar out of the OS, then it would probably be supported on iOS devices. Adobe dragged their heels on putting together a decent DESKTOP version of Flash for OS X (it still blows, btw) so why would Apple wait for Adobe to put together a half attempted mobile version that requires a new system update every time Flash is updated, AND makes the system run like crap, which everyone will blame on Apple.
