That's where Flash usually exists does it not?  The point is that
where Flash really shines is it's ability to mimic "instant feedback"
to the user... ie: user clicks button, instantly shows "Press
Releases" or whatever.. and thus you have (1) html page that contains
one big .swf with all those features.. there isn't a need for
multiple HTML pages, in fact the only benefit to doing it your way
would be that you could bookmark a Flash file.. you still can't
search it's text with CTRL-F or with an indexing engine... printing
is marginally better in Flash 5, you still can't bookmark a specific
layer even if you have multiple HTML pages.

When it comes down to it, what is Flash really usable for? Display of
information? No.  Showing store products in a dynamic environment? 
No.  Showing dynamic graphs and 3d images? Sure.  I gotta be honest
in saying that the only place I see Flash right now is @ cool
development shop sites... Raremedium, Juxt... even the Macromedia
showcase for Flash (http://www.macromedia.com/showcase/) mentions a)
ad banners, b) sound, c) complex client side applications...  Flash
isn't going to take over the www.  It wasn't made too.

Just my thoughts...
