… Apple …

Huge letdown.

Thank You

It literally pains me to agree with this. Edit: I could care less about the Widescreen, keyboard, video out (although that would be nice), removable battery , and yes for now, removable storage. That said, the absence of flash, open platform, a camera (we all know why it’s not there), and multi-tasking make this a big “no thanks” for me for now.

There are a number of reasons why this could be the case:

  • It won’t run flash.
  • Adobe has not made a plugin because they don’t plan to support it.
  • Adobe has not made a plugin because the device isn’t finalized yet and they haven’t had their hands on a unit.
