Hopefully, Flash will live on in AIR...

"Internet 2 is the Internet of (mostly mobile) Applications. So IOS ist
the next Internet “Browser”. As Flash was blasted as being the problem
the reality that HTML is the technology of the old WWW was overseen.
HTML for instance, as an interface, is not evolving as fast as the rest
of the internet. So companies like Apple realize this and are trying to
circumvent the WC3 while promoting it heavily and lambasting Flash. Its
an excellent strategy, and its dishonest.
So the HTML5 strategy will probably show up to be the wrong option!
We’re seeing the rise of Internet 2.0. Everyone really believed it was
the internet that was physically going to change and our bandwidth
increases but what really happened is that the website model turned into
the application model. Now more of the processing power can be handled
by the devices lending to a better user experience. For awhile the fight
was HTML vs. Flash. Who was going to be the future of internet? And then
Apple stepped in and made the announcement that they couldn’t see Flash
in their mobile future. And since they’re the leader in the technology
market it does seem like Apple killed Flash. But they haven’t. They just
pushed Flash into what they see as the future of their devices."
