And another one that didn't get it. The mails are not about Flash videos on the web. They are about writing cross platform programs that are not running on a flash plugin on the iPhone but are cross compiled to ObjC.
The "but developers can choose whether they want to write their programm for iPhone OS or for other platforms"-argument is so ridiculous, it makes me cry. In practice people have no choice but to develop for iPhone OS (because it's the biggest app platform) and then, if money/time/effort allows, write a second app for the rest of the world. And i think, as a developer i can complain and bitch all day about it, even if it won't change something. Of course, Steve can do whatever he likes with the platform. If developers like that is another question.
