Flash Player: Apple's Blind Spot?

Others have given important reason why this article is nonsense (Flash is proprietary, a bandwidth and performance hog, and flash ads major irritation when browsing, even on a fast PC with broadband).

I'll add that, just as Apple left out 3G for battery life reasons on the original iPhone, it's still leaving out Flash for performance and battery life reasons on the current iPhone. Flash would be a bad idea for both users and carriers on the current iPhone, even if it's a good idea on some fast new phone.

For a new iPhone with faster CPU (like Palm Pre's CPU), implementing Flash is just a simple management decision for Apple, if they ever decide to do it. But still a bad idea overall.
