    Five reasons Flash would've rocked the iPhone


    Android will demonstrate whether Flash on the iPhone would've been as bad as Jobs makes it out to be. I think not, and here are five reasons why.

    1. Free stuff
    2. Cross-platform
    3. Community of gamers
    4. The real full Web
    5. Choice rules

    The first point is reason enough for Apple not to support flash on the iPhone (unless its iFlash)

    "iFlash" sounds dirty.

    but, i digress. Im not much of an apple fan, but the iphone is a neat little bundle (i guess) I mean, it only took 3 generations for voice dialing, amiright. A side from that:

    1. Free-whatis? nothing is free ... ever
    2. Cross platform? I see a window(s) for that market.
    3. The "mobile phone gaming community" is few to non-existent.
    4. The interwebs is available on more interesting products like refrigerators.
    5. "choice rules" is an invalid argument (in soviet russia...)

    IMO

    I despise Job$ for his smug hypocrisy - but I've disabled Flash in Firefox. Luckily, I'm prepared to bitch about anything.
