#2The Internet cannot be built around a plugin from one company. We are much better off taking the one step back then moving two steps forward. Soon there will be at least five good browsers that support Html5/css3. If we can get canvas support in ie9, html5 usage is going to exploded.

#3People are voting for flash by not buying one more iPad every 2 seconds.
Really, you can't take a sold iPad as a vote against flash, besides there could be any number of people that have not bought it for the exact same reason.
From a computer manufacturer you'd expect better logic.

The poor logic originates from the techcrunch headline... Not what Steve Jobs said.
>“People seem to be liking the iPad,” Jobs said to laughs and applause. “We’ve sold one every three seconds since we launched it,” he added.

#5HTML5 rendering on iPad's webkit is an absolute disaster. So perhaps they are voting against HTML5 rendering in acceptable framerates.

If they attribute that to Steve Jobs then he has either said it or TC is completely out to lunch on this one.

I took his comment to mean Flash for the iPad market (aka, casual computer users) is a non-factor.
So either people aren't aware of that limit(lack of knowledge perhaps) or, they are aware and it doesn't matter - either way he's right, Flash is just not a major factor for the Ipad's target market.

You can't even make that claim without knowing how many people did not buy an iPad because it does not support flash.

2 sold million iPads are quite good enough to make that point.

For all you know if it had flash on board it would have been 3 million, as long as iPads are being sold as fast as they can be produced and no investigation has been made in to how many people would consider buying an iPad if it supported flash this statement is simply false.
