Oh it's great that they support HTML5 for sure.
It's just of no use to people who want an iPad right now but want all their video sites, online games etc. to work.
So saying they support HTML5 now does nothing to help those folk right now. Down the road it may make lack of Flash a moot point, but it doesn't do a lot to remedy the situation for people interested in the iPad currently who frequent Flash heavy sites.
They don't care about HTML5 and the other stuff Jobs talks about. They care about their video sites not working, their Facebook games not working, some sites they frequent not displaying properly etc.
