> New open standards created in the mobile era, such as HTML5, will win on mobile devices (and PCs too). Perhaps Adobe should focus more on creating great HTML5 tools for the future, and less on criticizing Apple for leaving the past behind.

Well said, Steve. I, too, hope that Adobe makes some HTML5 tools to help me create web sites for the future.
I encourage everyone to read Steve’s official statement on Flash. It sums up what most defenders of Apple’s policy have been suggesting for months now. It’s not about Apple hates Adobe. It’s not about Steve being a vindictive jerk. It’s about being bold enough to kill old technologies to make way for the new. And that’s been part of Apple’s DNA since its inception.
