If that were true then this announcement would have been posted by nebulae and there would have been a daily countdown.

I'm predicting right here, right now....this thing is going to be a flop.

Oh, and HP's new device coming out? Full Flash Support.

Suck it, Apple. Suck it HARD.

Hahahahaha.

The fucking battle lines are being drawn as we speak.

Apparently HP's ads for their new tablet will hit hard on the lack of Flash support on the iPad. LOL.

Not only that, but Adobe is gearing up a big FUCK YOU to Apple by actually partnering with HP.

hehe, nah this thing won't be a flop man. How could you be so short sighted ? It's not my kind of device either, but it will be successful.

I'm thinking about getting one for my old man, who's a technology retard, but if I can get him emailing his grandkids I'll consider that a small miracle.

oh, and I haven't been following the iPad closely but, surely Apple are just drip-feeding features for more revenue ? I'd be surprised if they aren't supporting flash before the year is out...


I remember when the iPhone came out and it didn't have 3G - and i was like ''fail'' ... sure enough they added it in a later revision.

Well, when I say 'flop' of course I'm talking in relative Apple terms. They'll sell em, that's for sure. But the numbers won't be anywhere near the iPhone's sales figures during it's first 6mon / 1yr. Not even close. Nevermind lack of Flash, it's still very much a head scratcher device for a lot of people. They won't see the value.

Right now the lack of Flash support has barely been reported in the media. You bet your sweet Irish ass that's going to change once these things start to ship and people's web experience is fucking SHIT.

well, it's definitely not a device to adopt early. but what is...

but ya, early adopters are gonna be pissed if they're none-the-wiser about the lack of flash support. I guess though, the most popular flash based sites probably have iTouch/iPad friendly versions of their site ? like youtube ?


I think it really fails as an e-reader though. major fail in that respect.

Apple has started the push to get people to rethink ubiquitous tech before (floppy drives, anyone?) and I think that's exactly what's going to happen here. Flash is pervasive, but it sucks. It'll take time, but I predict Flash is going down.
