Adobe's attitude about Flash is significantly different from their attitude
about Acrobat.  As a result, Acrobat is virtually ubiquitous and Flash more
of a take or leave product.

I definitely prefer non-flash websites on any platform, Palm, Windows or
otherwise.

My device is now an HTC Incredible running Android and while it handles a
quasi 'flash lite' I don't feel that adds anything to the mix that I
couldn't do without.

I happen to agree that Flash is a compromised vehicle. It does not
run on the FreeBSD and Palm devices I've used over the years.
Certain flavors of 64-bit Linux are now supported, but not the ones
I have. And Flash is indeed responsible for bad behavior I've seen
on Mac, so I enable it only selectively. Maybe it works well on
Windows machines, but that's not where I live.

Were I to meet Steve Jobs, I might very well dislike him. But I'm
with him on this one. Flash is not a suitable foundation for an
open, connected world.
