Flash is DEAD

It's not just Apple blacklisting Flash anymore. The latest versions of *all* major Android browsers no longer support Flash. As far as mobile device support goes, Flash is rapidly going down with the ship.

Maybe this is not news, I'm just sayin :)

You're right where mobile device support is concerned. This sudden stop by Adobe to support mobile flash on Android created some problems here and there (Notably the BBC used flash to power their iPlayer software).

Flash wasn't conceived for mobile platforms. Most users were using Flash to watch movies online, so I hope there will be a consensus about the movie format in the near future (some browsers not wanting to include H264 because of the patent-riddled nature of it, while other only want to use it).

Just a little extra info : Apple wasn't really blacklisting Flash, but all types of software that allowed people to run software on a iDevice that Apple couldn't control. There is no Java or .NET environment on apple devices (applications, yes, but not just an environment where you can run whatever you want). Flash was just the most visible of the lot, so its unsupported nature received the most press attention
