Last week I was stoked for the release of the Apple tablet, which we now know as the iPad. The iPad is quite the sexy machine, I’ll give it that. But the sexiness of the iPad comes at the cost of functionality. The iPad is not the powerful and fully functional device I had hoped for. Instead the iPad is essentially an oversized iPhone, that cannot make calls, without usb, Flash, or a camera. I love my iPhone, but I love my Macbook a whole lot more because it can experience the web as it was meant to be seen. Unfortunately, a true web experience is impossible with the iPhone, the iPod Touch, and now the iPad.

Apple makes millions from the cut they take from every app sold in the App store. Since there are thousands of Flash games and apps on the net already for free, these would certainly slow sales in the App store. Consequently Apple has decided to disable the functionality of Flash, thus making a true web experience on the iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch impossible. Apple has made a huge mistake by seriously inhibiting one of the most important and prolific technologies on the web, and they should correct their mistake.

The Picture of The Snow Leopard on the cover of the Box for the latest Mac OS had to be photoshopped. IntThe original picture of the White Snow Leopard red blood could clearly be seen on the animals face.

Apple is Branding Snow Leopard as the “Worlds most Advanced OS” which is quite the bold claim. Not one that I disagree with at all though. Apple simply has a more elegant interface, as Walt Mossberg explains below. Although in very different words.
