Picking to support or not support one, that's fine. But Nokia isn't killing anything. They're picking a technology set to support. Same for Google - WebM (VP8 encoded video) works well with Flash (*.flv and *.f4v) btw.
When I talk flash I mean SDK and bloated closedsource plugins for webgames and animations etc. It should just die imho.

With HTML5 we atleast can improve it cause the webrendering algoritms, like webkit/gecko, is opensource. Adobe is not AFAIK.
