Okay lets take flash out of the equation - and lets take Banners ads out
too while we're at it.
Ad servers are the biggest drag on response times from what I see on a
daily basis.
Some would argue that disabling flash could be considered a violation of
"net neutrality"....

I agree with your point on the handhelds, and while the iPad could
definitely be considered a hand held, I think Apple's plan is to
capture the net book users who want something that looks pretty,
which the Air failed to do. I can think of far bigger reasons it may
not get adopted than flash.....
Assuming the device has the same OS limitations as the iPhone and
iPod the list follows....
No File system or browser - no file downloads and storage, iWorks
will probably have its own internal system that only uses its files
The app store being the only way to install software means only app
store approved applications - no downloading of a whole internet of
useless and useful software.
Safari will probably still have File form inputs disabled - they
could at least enable the iPhone OS devices access to the camera roll
for uploads.
Personally I can forgive a lot of these for my iPhone, but if I were
looking for a device like the iPad I would want a lot more freedom
and regular computer options.
Agree.
I hope the next MSI will have all of those, but Flash® is to me, for
mobile handheld, just a good way to suck down your battery in 3 hours
and be a good memory leak problem.
Perhaps Asus will strike the market like they did with netbooks...
If everything gets slow and webpages take twice time to show because
of those 3 flash banners, thanks i'll be good without it :)

Mass adoption is used to limitations … Flash Lite is available on
quite a few phones out for a year and a half now: iPhone is the
most sold phone out.
Flash is a must have on desktop, but people are not used to have
flash on handheld so well...

I agree from a Developer Geek POV, but if they want mass
adoption of the device they shouldv'e put flash support in. I
think the general web surfer can overlook its exclusion on the
iPhone and iPod platforms, due to screen size and bandwidth
limitations, but on a screen that size even with bandwidth
limitations most people will expect to view the full internet.
