Steve Jobs Thoughts On Flash

Steve Jobs has posted his thoughts on Adobe and Flash and states why it’s not being supported on the iPhone/iPad.  He writes that Flash is a closed system and that he doesn’t wish for third party software to come between the developer and the platform – which is fair enough.

Also, there’s further digs at Flash such as it’s consumption of battery power, security issues, and the fact that it was designed before multi-touch mouse-less devices.
