@timothyt@... quote "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, "
OK, let's forget that this blog post didn't mention Flash at all and get that out of the way! end quote
The PDF vulnerability is also cross-platform. You do know what that means, don't you? Here..."Heres Adobes warning:
"A critical vulnerability exists in Adobe Reader 9.3.4 and earlier versions for Windows, Macintosh and UNIX, and Adobe Acrobat 9.3.4 and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh."
OK, got that out of the way. Finally...you rant against dependence on a single company, and to support your position you use Apple as your example? Is Apple now made up of more than a single company? Closed nature of Flash and PDF? Ever hear of OSFlash for Flash or PDFCreator for PDFs?
