There's no doubt it's a limitation.
It's just not as widespread as I thought in terms of the websites I personally browse daily.
My main concern among sites I visit daily was ESPN.com, but it worked fine both in terms of all the menus etc., the videos played fine as I said above etc.
If someone visits a lot of Flash heavy sites it would be a huge drawback. But I was surprised that I didn't really run into any problems other than some flash facebook games of course not working.
In any case, the iPad will either sell like gangbusters and we'll see sites move away from Flash. Or it won't and other tablets that support Flash will be better web browsers in terms of being able to display any site fine.
