Competition is good. HTML5 might be the uber great way of the future – but competition can only make it better. For example on Android phones, HTML5, Flash and native SDK pimp themselves to developers – and I trust the devs will pick the hottest one for their project. They will be forever comparing and throwing simple but rock solid complaints at the SDK makers – “Why SDK ‘A’ can do ‘X’ so well but you can’t?”.

I can promise that I’ll be very quick to give up on mobile Flash if it failed to prove itself against other solutions; but as well I’ll be quick to defend Flash if deserved. Interesting times lie ahead.

They waited and waited and just as Adobe was unveiling CS5 (and the public version of the publisher), they pulled the plug and changed T&C for the AppStore. They indeed did hurt Adobe (a bit), but more importantly they hurt the developers who were counting on that tool to become available. The devs won’t forget, dear Apple.

Nice article appeared on Ars Technica and here.
