[deleted post]I don't know what you just said but it sounds like you are trying to say that iPhone owners have meetings every sunday? I don't think so

Steve Jobs is all the way in America. I am in Europe

Think about it

            Oh apple. If only you wud listen to those tech guys and their suggestions then you wouldn't be having trouble releasing all of these lame updates to firmware just to prevent from having ur idevices from being jailbroken. But you cant help it can u? U just need to control everything.

              I do not like absolute control freaks like Apple. I do not see how a self respecting may submit to them. Thus these who submitted are zombies. Hehe..

                Why are even people talking to this Mx@E guy? Everyone knows he is Apple employee. This is users forum and Apple still can't respect that.

                              Face it - Apple are giving the people what they want. They make products and open Apple Stores. The people flock to them and spend their money on them. Whether you like it or not.

                              And we know Apple products aren't cheap.

                              Don't hate cos there is nothing you can do about it. Apple is a much more powerful corporation than you have the ability to understand.

                                Someone, 12 Aug 2010Well Apple disallowed Flash for perfomance reasons. You'... moreSo, Steve Jobs decided not to have a flash. He didn't even decide to put at least an option to enable or disable the flash so the user has the to decide for himself and not because the GOD wants it that way.

                                    Relevant comments help instead of trolling for problems. Id love to see more comments like: this works, this causes problem x, y, z. Dont upgrade yet etc. Instead everyone says first or moans about a phone they dont like. Grow up, some of us use this for business and need relevant opinions on the topic.

                                        simple user, 12 Aug 2010so... Apple did ban Adobe Flash, because of security reason... moreWell Apple disallowed Flash for perfomance reasons.

                                        You'd see if you were a Mac user. Flash on a Mac is really terrible in performance and in 10 years Adobe haven't done much to improve the performance of Flash on Mac's.

                                        The next Flash update for Mac's will have hardware assisted performance on newer Mac's though.

                                        It was because of the poor performance of Flash on Mac's (and the slightly poor performance of Flash on phone's) that Steve Jobs decided not to have Flash on the iPhone.
