And yes, we’ve got the full letter for you after the break.

Welcome to another edition of Everything iPad’s week in review. It’s been a pretty intense week, with the iPad catching some major flack for WiFi inconsistencies.

Remember, back at the beginning of March, we brought you that story, saying that the publisher Conde Nast would support the iPad by bringing several different printed magazines to the digital realm. And, in that story, we said that the major publisher was going to see where the Adobe/Apple war went, as Adobe’s Flash Player [...]

Another installment within the Flash Wars, this time brought to you by a major publisher. With this piece, though, we can at least say that the publisher in question is going in the right direction with their distribution model.

Flash is a Threat to the App Store, Except It Isn’t

We’ve made a few assumptions on this site, along with inside the forums amongst conversation, about why or why not the iPad is going to support Flash.

Another week gone by, another week in review. There was quite a bit going on this week in Apple/iPad talk, but most of it seemed to stem from the same issues: eBooks, pricing, subscriptions, and Flash. These are the big, burning questions for Apple since the announcement of the iPad, and issues that won’t seem [...]

If you’ll recall, Steve Jobs isn’t a big fan of Adobe’s Flash Player. In fact, he’s scorned the software for almost three years now on the iPhone, and since the announcement of the iPad things haven’t changed. People were more shocked to see Flash videos working just fine in promotional material, but when they were [...]

Generally, after an Apple event, Steve Jobs hosts his All-Hands Town Hall styled Q&A, where he gives employees of Apple, who may not have been part of the next phase in hardware/software development, a chance to pick his brain.
