The iPod, iPhone and iPad don’t play nice with the software. So what’s the big deal? Depends on who is talking.

Its a classic case of, “I’m right your wrong”, with no one budging on either side. Apple says flash is buggy and the main reason Macs crash all the time. Adobe says flash is used on at least 70% of the internet. Flash does take a lot of processing power so these mobile devices would be hard pressed to run them without degrading performance.
