Of course you might get a 5% of incompatibility because html5 switch for youtube is not yet complete, but that's really no big deal. You really, really want the atrocious flash, then get http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cloud...346618309?mt=8 , cloud browse app let's use. And there are tons of others to let you play divx, flv, mkv and all that jazz.

Your argument wrt top grossing apps is flawed, because exactly these are the most expensive apps that are the top grossing more usually, you should be thus looking at the highest selling amongst the free and paid ones. Moreover office apps and vnc apps are there exactly because people DO NOT want to use the pc any more with an ipad and prefer to remotely log in to it to control it and have their office apps on their ipad instead.
Flash is not atrocious. It works great on my Android phone. You are just quoting Jobs, but you are offbase. Frankly I think Apple will have Flash again very soon, and Jobs will come out and proclaim that adobe fixed flash to apple standards and its the consumers that win, and you can thank me, steve jobs. And millions of apple fans will proclaim this as truth.

The #1 top grossing apps in app store is Angry Birds. It comes in with a hefty $0.99 price. 10 out of 12 of those apps are less than $5.00. People want to VNC from ipad because they are remote, not because people dont want to use their computer.

Instead the owner of the app will manage their ads or get paid via subscription.
Hah you cut the middleman known as google, yet added the middleman known as apple. iAds is much more of a ripoff than traditional google ads
