Also, keep in mind that Flash is soooo much more than video.

A large number of entertainment and sports sites are almost entirely in Flash, as well as many fashion and arts sites. Flash is just everywhere.

And then you have the fun and creative sites, like this one: http://jimcarrey.com/

Nope, you can't see any of them on your iPad, but you can on your Android.... It's really as stupid of a decision as the initial lack of Search and Cut/Paste on the iPhone.
