I just calling his argument weak that is all.
I understand, but I think this is more of a discussion of Jobs arguments about flash and not a deal breaker thread really. Though your points are valid.
As I said I don't mind it, as there is a Netflix app now which is more what I wanted from my iPhone (I jumped to the droid recently as the iPhone was failing me as a Phone here in Philadelphia) but now that it is on the iPad I may go for it, but still too much money in my honest opinion at the moment. Especially since my netbook was 230 bucks cheaper and does more (I know it is not fair to compare, but Jobs did say it was a netbook killer in one interview I saw).
I think the thing that is bothering people about it, is that Jobs makes it sound like Adobe Flash is EVEL. (spelled wrong on purpose). When in the web development class even though were learning HTML, almost everyone prefered to use flash for some reason. Especially since Dreamweaver promotes it (no surprise there as it is made by Adobe).
