NO!!!! Flash is horrible! Why do I want to have something that will, slow down my device by high amounts, drain my battery a lot, crash my browser, crash my phone, lag my browser, play content when I don't want it, like those ads that automatically start playing. For example, if I'm in a nice 5 star restaurant, browsing the web on my iPhone, and somehow a pornographic flash advertisement appears, starts playing and produces loud sex noises, what are people around me going to think? Not to mention the fact that it will probably lag my home button response, therefore staying there for longer. Also, most flash games require left and right clicking and mouse hovers, how am I supposed to do that on a touch screen device? If you want flash, get Cloud Browse on the App Store, then you can use it all you want, but when you do, then you'll realize why you don't want it to run natively on the device. Cloud Browse contacts a computer with a flash capable browser, allowing you to view flash on a remote server, rather than your actual device, which is what allowed it to be approved on the App Store.

If they do, then they're idiots.

People might use it, if they want to play games or watch videos online, but then why would you spend loads of money on a 'smartphone' if you're going to play games on it.

People have forgotten what a smartphone is.

1	If they do its stupid because then people will play online flash games instead of the apps in the app store so apple will lose money + It would drain the battery life fast. answered Jun 05 '10 at 14:53 Christopher 16●1

This is all you need to know. It's Steve Job's thoughts on Flash. Why are people still wondering? It's not going to happen. Why do you think that Apple's trying to push HTML5 so much?
