Actually I am not saying the iPad is for everybody. I for once miss Flash. Until recently I thought Flash is just for the advertisers. But then I joined the Sun (Oracle) educational program. And HTML5 and h-whatever video won't help if Sun provides the lessons in Flash. I just object in "inventing" disadvantages is there are enough real restrictions. Martin -- Martin Krischik |
