Of course not

You can't have a Flash app on a device without a keyboard and mouse.

You can't mouse over things on an iPhone. You can't use the keyboard unless you click on a textfield. It's just not going to happen. Get over it.

Flash is a nuisance. Can't zoom Flash text. I've been enjoying the Flash blocker extension in FireFox. I'd like to see Safari block Flash. I've also ran Safari for Windows without Flash.

...did you read the article? Apple said there needs to be a mid-range solution between Flash Lite and full Flash, or the computing power of the phone will need to be increased. So that doesn't mean it won't ever come to the phone. It just means either Adobe will have to provide a solution or wait for a future generation phone.
lol, Silverlight

Courage to be flexible

They have show the courage to be flexible and grab unto new possibility.

1. Didn't believe in a phone but things changed, took the opportunity.
2. Didn't believe in video iPods.. now count iPod touches.

That's courage to be see as being once "wrong". Not many have that.

Do any of you notice that Steve looks much weaker in presentations? I do worry about his health. Not concern about apple. Just like Steve to be healthy.

It's been at least 2 years of him looking this sick.
I know people in the corporate world and it's not as glamorous as it
may look (just like Hollywood - which I know well too).
Is a complete facade.

Corporations will kill you regardless if you are the CEO or a peon.
The responsibility and stress are off the roof...
