Steve Jobs: People Are Voting Against Flash By Buying An iPad Every 3 Seconds

The 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.

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

I bought an Ipad not because it left out Flash,Java ,Qt and those; but because i wanted to see what the hype is all about. I was just curious. I wasnt voting for or against anyone.

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

&#62; Jobs: Adobe had a chance to get Flash on their devices, but came up short.<p>&#62; Jobs: this removal of Flash was simply the latest in a series of moves Apple has always taken to stay ahead of the curve.<p>Seems inconsistent.
