Sorry iPhone users
 

No Flash for you!

Apple is such bogus bastard

Who cares really?
Flash is by far the most misused and annoying invention ever.
It's not like we can't watch YouTube. There's an app for that.
It's not like we can't play games. There thousands of apps or that.
It's not like we can't look at porn. There's thousands of sites for that.

So what are we missing out on?
Cute little flash banners?
Unwanted noise on websites?
Sites that are too dumb to have non flash versions?

I must agree with The Truth Hurts :)
I love my iphone and today I got my ipad as well.

Flash is so 2008 and full of issues that apple just don't want to mess their top product with it. I really don't care for the sites that have flash and I can't watch them. Most of them will be using other options soon. To many apple users that you can miss, just because someone sticks with some bogus technology. And apple users usually have the money to spend. Apple toys are not cheap :). So basically you get a huge population with money :)

Who cares really???

I'm on Team Adobe for this one. How fucking arrogant is Steve Jobs?

So you guys are glad that in notime, a lot of the phonesurfers will be able to watch all the free illegal porn tubes on their phone too?

Gratz...

who cares

Don't you run a tube-site? Are we still arguing over Tubes? They're here to stay, adapt or die.

My Safari browser hardly ever crashes ... but when it does - it's because of Flash : (

One thing that becomes very clear here is that we are still in this long debate of preferable video codecs. Will there ever be a uniform video format that we all use or that is cross compatible between all devices and players? This debate had been going on for a long time even before Flash entered the scene and now that Flash has gained 75% of the market, we are still in a debate over preferred formats. So, here we are many years into this arena and MS is still pushing WM and Silverlight, Apple is sold on their QuickTime and the world is using Flash. Thinking of this is wearing me out, I need a nap, lol. :sleep

as an iphone owner I could care less about flash for now

I dont really care, dont use flash that much on my iPhone and its a good way to avoid a lot of adds I won't click in my life

i really hate flash

You could always install Android on your iPhone

This is the real issue. Safari is an insecure piece of junk and they realize people are hacking it much more frequently. Removing flash protects them from their own insecurities but it will not help them in the long run.

Correcto mundo

Keep buying those apps. "App"le loves you all the way to the bank.

It's just funny...I will admit that in both computers and handhelds, Apple has had the initial jump in quality over competitors. But over time that quality becomes even, and Apple fanboys can't handle that when everyone else starts getting the same functionality they have if not more for a fraction of the price. I bet before the iPhone, not a single one of you were dogging Flash, and now it's the "most misused and annoying invention ever" simply because it gives Apple fits?

I agree!

who gives a shit. flash would just chew up battery life and do what? allow us to play shitty flash games that would be to big for the screen anyway

Talking about missing a lot of points.. Guess its no use arguing then.

Ditto. :2 cents:

:2 cents::thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

before the iphone, i had an android phone for a year...
guess what, there was no flash there either..

damn so whack....

Flash or no Flash.. Apple's days with a superior smartphone are counted.

I'm not just talking about phones but on any computer of any sort. Obviously you've had experience with Flash before or you wouldn't be saying what you are about it, right? But the question is were you ever bitching about it before the iPhone and/or iPad and people dogging them due to no Flash? I didn't see too many of these "who cares about Flash" or "Flash sucks" kind of messages before people were complaining about lack of Flash on iPhone/iPad.

do a search... i've made several flash bashing posts on here dating as far back as 03..
for the very same reasons i'm still doing it... general misuse, and unwanted sound..

Funny how apple can make a special app using FLASH just for youtube, but FUCK everyone else - YOUR NOT GETTING FLASH!

Android all the way!

It won't matter to the iPhoney users. They are infected with the handJobs virus and no matter how ridiculous Apple products are, they will still fork over their money to keep Steve in shiny, new pancreases (pancreai)? Hey, without the iPhoney, they couldn't use their booger finger to move the little pictures around on the screen.
