Default Ouch- Steve Jobs takes a shot at Adobe

http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/

Quote:
Flash was created during the PC era – for PCs and mice. Flash is a successful business for Adobe, and we can understand why they want to push it beyond PCs. But the mobile era is about low power devices, touch interfaces and open web standards – all areas where Flash falls short.

Don't worry about it. I have like 28 fatas under my belt, and I turned out...

Oh wait. Yeah, you're screwed.

Once, I posted about Phaneuf being nominated for the Norris, after searching Phaneuf + Norris with no thread titles matching. The first response was the Owl-"O rly?" smartass pic. Mercifully, the thread 'twas deleted quickly.

Thoughts and Prayers, GATW.

Be interesting how this plays out.

Android just got a browser that supports Flash.

Don't worry about the fata, it is canceled out by hiding an interesting topic in a generic megathread.

So your fata actually goes on fanin80's record, now at 29.

Where where where? That is my one gripe with my phone right now. I hope you're talking about Droid for phones.

If I'm totally off base there, sorry. There's a reason I stay out of most of these threads, as I don't know crap about this stuff.

Before you go too nuts... Android didn't get a browser that supports Flash. They got a browser that will render a flash video server-side, and then serve it back to you in HTML5.

Pretty much exactly what Opera does on the iPhone.

Yeah he did, he was looking terrible a few months ago, just skin and bones but he looks better recently.

Steve Jobs is the perfect guy you want to sell quick vitamin supplments and that sort if you really wanted to. He's a huckster who loves to market/sell things to an audience @ heart. Unforuntately, I think he went through actual sound medicine to get healthy.

2.1 is the most recent release.

I figure 6 months before 2.2 comes out.
