Please read this about HTML5. they want 2012, but it could be 2022. So why talk about a technology that could be 10 years away? 2012 IS THE EARLIEST. It is stupid to say well HTML5 when they will probably be up to their 3rd revision of the iPad by then.
Adobe said early 2010? when has it been pushed back again? It is because they want want to run on MULITPLE Mobile devices. Not every device has the same operating system.
hate to tell you, but I have never had a plug-in crash my PC. I stream Netflix all the time on my netbook using My Mac OS and my Win 7 no issues. I never had a flash plug-in or Java plug-in crash my PC. Drivers yes, but not plug-ins, unless you are using plug-ins that are probably not tested.
Also hackers take over your system using flash? Really? Hackers can take over your system using anything. Sorry it is a bad excuse.
No the real reason I don't want an iPad because it is not worth 500 dollars, when I can do basically everything minus iBooks on my iPhone. I said I want an iPad, don't put words in my mouth.
Seriously I am not bias, but obviously you are (had a look at your other posts).
