OK, I'll try .You pushing my English skills to the limit, but I will take it as a challenge .

whisper marketing

Involved 3 millions of people potentially on the direct target from the marketing point of view. Android did it and it worked out. Now Black Berry is going to do the same. Ask every single flash dev about is he aware about mobile platforms he can deliver some stuff?. I can't find any better reason or more convincing way. I know, for most of anti flash guys, flash is nothing but adds, however it's only showing me ignorance. Same ignorance as Nokia showed me off. But they might have commercial reasons behind this strategy.

You have no any other but ranting against plug-ins used as commonly as web browsers. As open source lover I understand your point of view trying to defend purity of the web standards to keep the web open. But trying to stay in balance with commercial reality of the current internet world, is not a point to keep trying to convince you that you, by using flash plug-in you still can stay open source and use open source solutions to deliver some projects on the market for free. If you don't know that, you are just not up-to-date.

If you would like to know my opinion about plug-ins and opening the source of the flash player I can refer you to this topic

Going back to the subject. Understanding the question even if is not being written in your native tongue is crucial.

Question:
My personal opinion as the answer:
whisper marketing

Now let's find the supportive audience (flash community) and something to give customer over the opponent (which is iOS in this case) that don't have.


[EDIT]

Result?

Day to day conversation on the street with random dude:

MAC funboy:
I've got new shiny iPhone 4.. look how cool is the screen res and smooth transitions!

ANDROID funboy: blehh, but you still don't have proper multitasking!

MAC funboy: you kidding me.. look I can play audio on one app video on the second and play a game in this same time!

ANDROID funboy (quickly navigate using his back button to hide the weakness of having true multitasking OS): Ok, but it's not proper multitasking it just audio and video playback exception. Here It's a real one.

MAC funboy: sorry dude but who really is using 3 apps in this same time! Especially if this is killing your battery life!

ANDROID funboy: hmm... you know we can replace the battery. You can't :P

MAC funboy: ;/

ANDROID funboyk, cool. But what about Flash?

MAC funboy: Ok man I have to go so... btw, I prefer html5 :P (this is what Steve gave him as a weapon just for situations like that)

Maemo with its grate potential is not even taking a part in this game. As long as it could give you the options. Even if this is the bloody plug-in you personally hate. I miss the plug-in for conversation to be able to stay in touch with my friends abroad for example. Is no longer working in PR 1.3.

How rude would be life without extensions to make your software more personalized. Is not actually the genesis of where the app idea come from? Somebody realized if something is for everything it's over bloated peace of crap. Web browser using HTML5 itself will not give you what 3th party plug-ins can offer. But you have this freedom of choice. No like Android OS or Google desktop trying to force you to use ONLY one solution.. Chrome web browser. Seriously there is more danger and flash plug-in is on the very last place.
