    Finally. Now we can focus more on getting everything HTML5 :)

    Flash is history.

    Another example of how Steve Jobs was ahead of the curve.
    NeonTide, jsp20 and SpasticPat like this.

    Flash has been a selling point yrs ago & there's no need for it anymore, since HTML5 is on the rise unlike in 2009, correct me if I'm wrong, I didn't even notice I didn't install Flash on my device for months. I won't miss Flash, even if I feel the need, I still have the .apk and there'll certainly be some unofficial support (dev community) if things don't go well.

    It's a real shame, most video sites still use flash so they won't work on mobile devices anymore.

    At least we won't hear the "This device supports flash buy iOS doesn't" advertising anymore.
