"Adobe really slow in adopting Apple technology development platform. For example, although the Mac OSX has provided nearly 10 years, adopting in full the new Adobe (Cocoa) two weeks ago when selling CS5. Adobe is the developer of the last third of adopting Mac OS X in full, "said Jobs.
Jobs also called Flash is not working well for handheld devices that are now sailing tap into one of Apple's main business focus.

Another reason that made Apple averse to its use of Flash is a closed (proprietary). With a closed standard that is determined entirely by Adobe, Flash stout restrictions on developers who create applications that use it can not free berkerasi. That's what makes Apple lose patience because of obstructed Adobe to develop an optimal content across all devices. Apple would prefer open standards like HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript.
