Flash Wars

What happened to those?  Wasn't the main argument against iPhone the fact that it doesn't support flash?  I haven't heard anything about mobile flash in about a year.  They've stopped working on it and apparently no one cares.  I'm starting to think the reason people were so against it was because they just hated Apple.  They had a good reason, regardless.  Computers being over-priced, and Apple essentially cornering the market on MP3 players allowing them to charge whatever the hell they wanted for them.  Combined with the fact that many news media have outed Jobs as an out-right dick.  But I won't go into that much farther.  It's sort of like the arguments about many things involving Apple V Microsoft.  For example, the fact that Macs can't naturally support online games, which, let's face it, is the only reason people even buy computers now.  If it's not an MMO, it's a pyramid scheme hiding facebook game.  Macs are okay in their place, I suppose.  Then again, the only place I've ever seen them is in a Starbucks hiding some conceited asshole's face.  But, back to the original flash wars, they did seem a bit useless and mindless.  When you get right down to it, who cares about portable flash?  Who ever really did?
