Bye bye flash.

In July, I published a comparison between FLEX and HTML5, and a quick follow up a week later, stating that Adobe is going HTML5.
Well, it seems like Adobe finally realized, that there is no way to make the Flash VM run over a mobile platform without either killing the machine's performance, or draining its battery.
The FLEX platform isn't dead though - Adobe is making its Air platform run as a VM for native applications, both in Android and iOS (And, of course, desktops). But as far as the web goes - Flash goes where Microsoft's Silverlight platform goes - Into the history books.
