Ok I Agree with that. My original point was about lack of Flash support which is seriously messing with my enjoyment of my iPad as a browser. I know Apple would like the major providers who use Flash to stop using it... But it isn't happening as far as I can see. It is less likely to happen if competitors such as Kindle Fire support Flash. IMO content will ultimately eventually win over transient platform/hardware limitations. Apple is not and will not be the boss of everything no matter how much they want to be. If content providers decide they want to stick with Flash for now, apple should support Flash and explain to their customer base that their batteries don't last as long as they should because Flash is inefficient. Let the customer decide their own destiny. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
