Apple does not like Flash on it's small devices because the version of Flash produced by Adobe, for the Mac, is atrocious.
It's big, bulky and a resource hog.
Apparently Adobe were asked to produce something worthy of the iPhone, back in the day, and they could not.
Flash on a Mac is much worse than Flash on Windows.
The Day's of Flash are probably numbered anyway, with the advent of HTML5. YouTube have converted most of their library to HTML5 or QuickTime which is why the iPad/iPhone/etc can view YouTube video

Most people that have an iPhone know that there is no flash. The new iPad did not say that it would include flash either. Many websites use it and if the iPad is suppose to be better at surfing the web then it should have it.
My question is: How hard is it to enable flash for a device? Does it just require apple to write more pieces of code or does it take additional hardware?
Flash support seems to be the only thing holding me back from buying one. I want something to surf the web on casually in my home.
With unlocking and jailbreaking of the iPhone is there anything that can be downloaded to get flash support? If so that might work on the iPad and then it would actually do something well.
