I can't wait for sites that jump in your face with unnecessary animation and sound AND render incorrectly depending on browser when doing so.

Unless those people who own cats are all Richard Stallman impersonators, I don't see how that makes any logical sense.
It's the best mobile device screen out there, hands down. They really don't need to do that.
Pretty much spot on. I don't like when people say that one change for a new kind of device will dictate how everything else will be used. Yeah, mobile devices with touchscreen capabilities are here to stay, but that doesn't mean desktops are going away. Designing for the common features between the two only is doing the users a disservice for anything that could benefit from additional UI features.
"I'm happy I rejected doing anything for this apple/html5 page. They should rethink their policy and give credits to the authors."
That made me stop reading the article right away.
Playback is ok in latest Chrome, fullscreen is in-window, so no real fullscreen.
And people say HTML5 is the future now? I just hope those players that have a 'fall-back' to Flash allow you to set the Flash version as the default one.
How do I disable HTML5?
The solution - proper placement, scaling, different layout flow methods - have been around for ages, and it's up to developers to employ them.
And because Android devs had to deal with them already, I can't wait to see the barrage of shit that will happen when devs unprepared for it have to deal with the new iPhone resolutions.
I hope this causes more people to look at their own attitude towards Apple and the kind of future it's buying them.
Tell me you're not comparing the decompression and rendering of a video against a simple animation.
Hopefully with the new online store with send-to-phone feature and as Android numbers continue to gain on iPhone, people will realize the Android is a very solid platform to develop for.
Until they fall into the hole themselves.
Have you ever even bought an iPhone app? There's so much crap there with inconsistent UI.
If he didn't, we'd still be using Mac keyboards without arrow keys, the puck mouse, etc
That's because you like choice; the freedom to run Flash when you want, something you don't have in the iDevices.
