>It's not going to "kill" the iPhone, but I wouldn't be surprised if it has contributed to preventing mass-adoption You are too technical to understand that consumers don't really care about flash at all. They don't understand the argument whatsoever. It is two sides of geeks yelling nonsense back and fourth. Take your argument: Justin.tv. According to Alexa, it's barely in the top 400 highest traffic sites on the net. I doubt anyone in the mainstream has even heard of it. YouTube, on the other hand, is the #3. And there is an app for that. Hulu.com is 196, and Vimeo is 169. If you have YouTube playback, you have all the video 95% of your customers wants or needs. For the rest, there are apps. Nobody is buying smartphones on technical features, just like nobody is buying an iPad because of how much RAM it has. People are buying smartphone because of its Use Cases. Because it has free turn-by-turn navigation. Because it can play games online. Because it can SMS. Browse the web. Recognize the song playing overhead at lunch and buy it online. Take pictures (that's really the only flash consumers care about).
