iPad is flash, but not Flash


One of the criticisms of the iPad that I've heard/read about most concerns its inability to run Adobe's Flash (get the Flash player).

Given that many websites - including big-hitters such as the BBC - use Flash to support their multimedia interactivity, the criticism may seem valid. But why Apple continues with the policy (Flash doesn't appear on the iPhone or iTouch either) remains debatable...

... until you read the report in this month's Wired magazine, which offers some interesting answers - and a rather playful image of Steve Jobs (above).
