Slide 1: 

Steve Jobs Flash Is No Longer Necessary

Slide 2: 

Apple has a long relationship with Adobe. Apple was their first big customer, adopting their Postscript language for new Laserwriter printer. Apple invested in Adobe and owned around 20% of the company for many years. Today the two companies still work together to serve their joint creative customers--Mac users buy around half of Adobe's Creative Suite.

Slide 3: 

Steve Jobs published a message on the Apple site titled “Thoughts On Flash”. In it the Apple CEO finds six reasons on why Flash is not supported on the iPhone and the iPad. Steve Jobs concludes that Flash is PC era and not ready for touch enabled mobile era.

Apple in clash with Adobe The version of Flash that runs on Mac computers is too slow on the iPhone. Steve Jobs claims Flash drains the battery of mobile devices.

Slide 5: 

Steve Jobs said that Adobe (ADBE) hasn't created a version of Flash that's suitable for the iPhone. Flash Lite, Adobe's phone-focused software, isn't good enough for the iPhone.

Slide 6: 

Adobe’s Flash products are widely available, this does not mean they are open, since they are controlled entirely by Adobe and available only from Adobe. It’s also a proprietary system, and while Jobs admits that their mobile OS is also proprietary, he claims that web standards should be open, like HTML5, CSS and JavaScript.

Slide 7: 

Adobe has repeatedly said that Apple mobile devices cannot access “the full web” because 75% of video on the web is in Flash. But there is a more modern format, H.264, which is viewable on iPhones, iPods and iPads. Its performance, reliability and security are all shoddy.

Slide 8: 

Symantec recently highlighted Flash for having one of the worst security records in 2009, and the Flash is the number one reason for Macs crash. Flash has not performed well on mobile devices.

Slide 9: 

Flash was designed for PCs using mice, not for touch screens using fingers. Most importantly Apple doesn’t want “a third party layer of software to come between the platform and the developer.”

Slide 10: 

Finally, Steve Jobs concludes, Flash is a relic. “Flash was created during the PC era for PCs and mice,” he says, “but the mobile era is about low power devices, touch interfaces and open web standards, all areas where Flash falls short.”

Slide 11: 

The avalanche of media outlets offering their content for Apple’s mobile devices demonstrates that Flash is no longer necessary to watch video or consume any kind of web content. And the 200,000 apps on Apple’s App Store proves that Flash isn’t necessary for tens of thousands of developers to create graphically rich applications, including games.
