Apple is banning the Adobe stuff to keep the iPhone and iPad a closed system so that you are forced to buy content from Apple.
Nonsense.
Netflix is on the iPad. Do you rent Netflix movies from Apple or from Netflix? How about Kindle? Kindle is on the iPad and iPhone and iPod touch. Do you buy Kindle books from Apple or from Amazon?
There are so many other examples...
All that other stuff about usability and battery life etc. is smoke and mirrors to disguise the greed.
Um...okay...I guess the rest of us have just been imagining that Flash leads to performance, reliability, and security issues.
Wait...you're not being facetious by any chance, are you?
Remember that in the past Adobe stopped selling Premier for Mac in a retaliation to Jobs' attitude and Final Cut Pro.
I think it was because Adobe knew it got its ass handed to it on a plate. FCP simply made Premiere look like a toy.
By the way, if Adobe had bothered to actually code premiere for the Mac instead of producing a weak Windows port, Apple wouldn't have bothered...
Adobe sound like a spoilt child and blogs from Adobe employees with comments like this do them no favours at all. They just look like amateurs who have no handle on the business.
On that, we are in complete agreement.
