I think pretty much everyone in the tech and design communities has read Steve Jobs’ Thoughts on Flash open letter by now. Published early this morning, it outlines a clear case for the rationale why Apple has deliberately chosen to block Flash from the iPhone/iPod/iPad ecosystem — not only as a plugin in their Safari mobile browser but as a development platform for “native” apps as well.
Well, well…despite Apple’s mind-boggling security measures, Arrington manage to snag some time using the iPad at a few third-party developer locations. And his review is, well, surprisingly positive. He’s an Apple fan to a degree but has been known to blast Apple on some of their more questionable moves (specifically the tight level of App Store control). So with this kind of glowing recommendation, I can imagine some of TechCrunch regulars as well as other well-known tech communities out there may have their ears perked.
