"you need to understand that if you add flash, your performance is going to suffer. Apple knows what it is doing."
Look I will defend my statement. Why can't any of the other tablets match the performance of the ipad2?

Current tablets and phones that "feature" Flash are ridden with crashes and crappy performance. This is everywhere in any review you read about those.
Adobe is still struggling to get a decent Flash Player for mobile devices, and any day that passes that a decent one doesn't arrive adds more reasoning to Apple's decision to not even try to allow one in iOS.

All I know is that I do not like having to avoid sites that have flash. That is annoying and a disservice to the consumer.
It should be my choice, not Apple's. I don't, for a second, believe that it was a choice for "performance". It was a business choice.
Adobe is certainly no help in the matter, but eliminating the choice is not something I like and I'll switch if/when there is a decent option out there.
[I do love my iPad 2, but I find this annoying enough to get me to look elsewhere. I am not alone in this thinking, either]
- Thanks fucking god that nobody forced you to buy that piece of shit Apple product. Go buy a tablet that can run Flash if it's that important!monospaced

Your point is valid in terms of consumers making choices on what they want.
The fact of matter is that consumers are idiots. They are unable to make wise choice for themselves.
