> But flash player is connected to many shareware applications like adobe connect, browsers etc. Even windows phone doesn't execute flash player. Its not an OS issue. It is the user issue. So indirectly it discourages the tab users to switch back to desktops. May be one day your software policies will force us to use floppy disks taking back to the john von Newman. Playing with abacuss. Users time is precious and how can the companies be blind and blank hearted about user requirements? See battery getting down is a hardware issue. It should be addressed to the hardware vendor. When adobe has monopolized the flash dependent applications from the beginning of the GUI generation, why such a controversy now?

Jobs' reasoning is that playing Flash® content is processor consumptive and it drains batteries, thus shortening the life of them in mobile devices. In six years, that hasn't changed. Not for the iPhone®, iPad® or iPod® Touch™. It never will change and there never will be a Flash Player® for iOS®.

Going forward NO Android™ devices will be compatible with Flash®, but older versions on older devices can still be loaded with "legacy" builds still available from Adobe®. Android™ (Google®) cites the same reason Apple® did for the decision to end support for Flash®. Adobe® continues to release security patches to Flash Player® for Android™ until September 2013, announcing the "end of life" for Android™ Flash® September 10.
