when I see how much flash content of the web is useless advertising and I combine that knowledge with the currently available limited traffic plans available here in Switzerland, I think flash on the iphone would only work if I can selectively chose which flash applet I want to see which is probably too complicated for apples taste. Even worse: While I'm sure it's possible to create optimized flash-content that is not too taxing on the hardware, I'm not quite sure that the various ad agencies take their time to optimize their output for small devices. Why should they? So flash-ads would probably really diminish the overall browsing experience - just look at the flash-enabled android phones out there: The moment you hit a page with flash ads on them, they slow down to a crawl. Would you want to have that experience on your iphone? After two years of heavy iPhone use, I might (direly) miss background applications or real over-the-air podcast download but I certainly don't miss the flash support. At all.
