Web search engines are blind to Flash (so I am told).
I also have not come across Flash in a web site that was a problem or an issue.
I completely agree with Christiaan that lets compare real working devices. Right now we have the iPad, when something new comes out then it can be looked at. However when the others come on the market Apple as usual will produce newer, better, CUZ APPLE RULES! That was a joke by the way! For all practical purposes it is a, or could be a very usable device (not for all) but VW should utilize any tool available to them and the people using VW. This is evident in their Mac/ PC Programing and it obviously woke the Giant Autodesk to program for Mac. If VW is ahead in something they should continue full steam ahead.
As a not if much of this is incoherent I have not had my coffee yet this morning I apologize.
