Thoughts on Flash

Steve Jobs trashes Flash and Adobe:

The third party may not adopt enhancements from one platform unless they are available on all of their supported platforms. Hence developers only have access to the lowest common denominator set of features. Again, we cannot accept an outcome where developers are blocked from using our innovations and enhancements because they are not available on our competitorâs platforms.

Pretty much everything outlined in this post has been covered already by bloggers. Makes you wonder if Jobs didn’t just wait for the rest of the internet to give him his arguments - heh.
