For all of you who are as fascinated by the Apple-Adobe Flash standoff as I am, here are some links to some of my personal favorite blog posts and articles capturing the highlights of the situation.
As a certain CEO of a certain industry trade association recently commented, "Apple antics are the best soap opera out there! I like watching it better than The Tudors!"

- You can find a pretty good info-mercial for the Adobe Flash Platform by clicking here

- IT security pro James Arlen thinks the iPad's anti-Flash design will be the death of Adobe's troubled software. I had no idea Flash was in such dire shape.
- A recent article in CNET indicated that a lack of Flash didn't have
much to do with reasons for NOT buying
iPads.
- Former Adobe CEO Bruce Chizen and Bill Gates chiding Adobe?????
