    Okay, after seeing HTML5 video on the iPad, the web should really completely drop flash FOR VIDEO in favor of this standard; it's sexy.

    Sure, Adobe AIR and all those other cool things it assists in can stay, but flash for video has been absolutely trumped.

    true, but they never got the push that HTML5 has gotten.

    Yep, but you can also zoom it in fullscreen if you want.

    I know I am doing the same shit I can do on my desktop... but my ass can do this stuff on a train now, no issues, and that's a big deal to me.

    This HTML5 paint program also "works" however since the iPhone OS doesn't really mimic the mouse cursor it doesn't work very well. The iPad Safari browser was so much more capable than the iPhone's in just the few minutes I spent testing the device.

    It feels like a desktop browser that you touch.

    I know it shouldn't be so novel, but I got a little giddy the first time I opened up the forums on it.

    Also, I can type RIDICULOUSLY fast on this thing when it is on a desk or my lap.

    I'm starting to see Apple's maneuver on Flash partly as a market test. This is complete speculation, but it's almost like they're saying, "We think we have the power to wreck monopolies... let's topple a weak one to test our strength."

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    I wasn't able to figure out a comfortable typing method. I couldn't touch type on it which was disappointing because I've always wanted a bigger iPhone keyboard so I flipped it into portrait mode and thumb typed.

    The forums did look good on it :P

    Resting on my lap or a desk, I can type faster than I can on my iphone. It's not full touch-type, but considering my eyes have to be where the keyboard is, no harm no foul.

    I am probably 60ish WPM? on this thing.

    There's certainly a voting bloc that has responded predictably for decades now to someone whispering in their ear, "Cheating brown people are STEALING opportunities from you! And you work so hard, don't you?"

    If by toppling a monopoly a better alternative comes out of it, it's not a bad thing.

    Also, Apple is not in control of the stuff that is replacing flash content; the replacements are open source and community-built.

    This is kind of like Linux beating Windows if it happens... and with a big player or three trying to make it happen (even Microsoft has said HTML5 is the future and the only reason they support flash at all is because everyone has it), it has a real chance.

    I owned a copy of 2nd ed but never ever actually played, so any jokes about it would ring hollow coming from me.
