PDF and Flash and great formats, but the closed nature of both formats and the fact that the whole world has to wait for a single company to address the issue (instead of the browser teams and OS teams independently working on solutions) makes me for one very nervous. It's exactly this level of dependence on a single company that makes me think Jobs/Apple was right to not put Flash into iOS, and makes me very worried about Android now that they HAVE put Flash into their OS (especially considering how slowly patches for mobile OS's come out compared to desktop OS's).
