Today is the day APPLE changes the world. Again.

Where's that HP tablet ad? lol.

Seriously. No Flash support will spell disaster for the iPad, mark my words.

It had better be a part of the final release. Christ. Flash is everywhere these days.

Flash is going the way if the Lemur.

Flash is going the way if the Lemur.

No flash support, no multitasking?

what the hell? Thats a %100 dealbreaker in a web enabled device. Maybe gen 2 will be better.

Show me where the very 1st gen iPhone had early adopter trouble? It didn't. Doubtful this will as well.

The 1st gen iphone didnt have true early adopter trouble, but do you not remember the moaning and gnashing of teeth when the 3g was announced given that it was quite a step up compared with the 2g. I remember many early iphone adopters moaning about the costs of getting out of contracts so they could upgrade etc.

Granted as this has no contract attached (not even for the 3g, which is pretty cool imho) it wont be so hard to upgrade, but I honestly think that the apple tablet that we're going to want will be the ipad pro that I expect will turn up in the next 1-2 years.

a nifty gimmick, but no reason for me to drop coin.

I'll get it eventually when I have left over stripper money.

LoopStationZebra works for Adobe.

[LoopStationZebra]

I do not *cough*HTML5willneverreplaceFlash*cough* work for Adobe.

[LoopStationZebra]

No, seriously lads. I can't imagine the amount of bitching that will go down if the iPad doesn't support Flash.

Jesus, think of all the consumer websites nowadays that feature some interactive Flash demo. Auto companies, electronics, whatever.

It's one thing to not have that capability on the iPhone and iTouch. Quite another to not have it on the world's greatest web surfing device.

Oh Steve. Oh how our love runs hot and cold.

[hacktheplanet]

The funniest part is that people are bitching about something that isn't even finished, let alone available for purchase!
It's like Apple sneaked into the nursery at 3am and stole all the sleeping babies, and then ground them up for food while simultaneously discriminating against minorities and burning recyclables in the front yard.

WHY APPLE WHY MUST YOU TORTURE US WITH CONSUMER PRODUCTS

[LoopStationZebra]

Yes.

I'm going to hold out hope for Flash support.
