[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1100496, member: 71075"] People said that about the iPhone and how'd that work out? Your making an assumption about the pervasiveness of Flash on websites. Many websites do not use Flash and if they do, a good majority of them use it for ads. On top of this, many sites where Flash is "required" (YouTube as a prime example) offer alternatives. For instance, I haven't watched a video in Flash on YouTube in quite some time. I use Opera as my web browser and therefore get the WebM version of YouTube videos. That takes care of most of my Flash needs. 50%? That number is way too high. There is no way that 50% of websites require you to use Flash to view content. If it did, people wouldn't use FlashBlock or other Flash blockers. [/QUOTE]
