Flash is a very powerful tool but it has a lot of flaws and is a huge cpu burden. First they need to make it more efficient. Second I think they need to take original flash and gear it more towards animation like toon boom which is just animation, then take their new program flash catalyst and make that the more web oriented one but support HTML5 and allow you to publish for HTML5 cause we are in a world where you have to design for wide wide audiences and what platforms we design for are a choice we have to make just like we've always had to choose who our designs want to hit and attract. With flash as animation, and catalyst more towards web and interactivity I think they could work more on efficiency and with the two together you could still make good interactive web games or device apps. Overall I applaud Apple on it's innovation and they know that we are a mobile generation, no one wants to be tied down to a desk, we want stuff now and we want to do a lot of things at once. But Adobe is refusing to accept that maybe flash isn't the full answer. I know flash will not ever "die" but to change it and evolve it is only natural right? So recap Flash=Animation(like toon boom) Catalyst=Web and interactivity with support for open source web standards. I just wish someone could talk to adobe :/ I honestly think Adobe needs to split flash into two entities. Flash is a very powerful tool but it has a lot of flaws and is a huge cpu burden.
