Ipad - a deal breaker for me

My extreme joy at the announcement of the Apple Ipad yesterday was followed by extreme disapointment!

Now don’t get me wrong, I like the iPad. I can see one in my future. It’s cool, and based on the wide range of computers and mobile devices I have used over the years I know I won't be able to resist it.

However...............

The lack of Flash in the browser is huge deal breaker for me, and will be a total deal breaker for many. A lot of the web is driven by Flash, including thousands of websites, embedded YouTube videos and most on-line games. This alone can have a direct impact on my experience of the iPad on the web. It’s easy to understand why Adobe is unhappy with Apple and its refusal to play with Flash and I am just as unhappy.

So while I will probably get my hands on one of these in the future I am going to wait and see if Apple comes to its senses first.
