Apple Wins Ground in Fight Over Flash

Apple is making headway in its fight against Adobe as some companies shift away the Flash video and animation technology.

Senh: At the same time, Android phones are touting Flash support. And they've already surpassed iPhones in market share. When google comes out with their tablet computer, I see them beating the iPad too. There are still too many sites with Flash on the web, and despite the number of iPads sold,they're still a niche market compared to desktop computers. What I see is designers will just do a browser detect and offer iPad owners a Flash-less version of their site. I think Apple will lose this fight.
