Simply not true. Gmail calling is not possibly in HTML/js.
There are a lot of cool websites that use Flash for more than games and video these days. Qwiki won TechCrunch Disrupt last year. Beatlab is a super cool music creation app.
And Flash will likely always be the standard for DRM Video on the web. Being an open standard, HTML5 can never include DRM.
I see Flash's place is as a stopgap for features that haven't been standardized/implemented yet. It does those very well.
