Or with one of the s-pen samsung devices it works just as well as with a mouse. Performance wise my, at this point almost two year old Galaxy S2 handles 1080p flash video playback on youtube with no problem at all.
Love it or hate it, HTML5 fanboys aside, flash is still the dominant force in the web today, it doesnt matter that HTML5 will be kind a few years from now, today it isnt so if you want full access to the web you need flash.

Have to say I agree with this. While flash certainly has it's downfalls, Seandroid has a real, and IMO, over the top issue/problem with flash.
yes, it's useless for SEO, and yes, it has in the past been buggy, but I think most of the aversion to it, comes from this article/interview with Steve Jobs about why he hated flash, but in a 1000+ word piece he fails or better said, purposely avoids the biggest problem for apple:
It's near impossible to "tax" flash media or make revenue from it. It's an easy way to get content without paying for it.
The whole muose button/touchscreen thing is nonsense. i use a touchscreen POS system for my business and 99% of all flash content works perfectly, and frankly it's a programmers problem if they build flash sites that don't work on tablets.
HTML is 100 times more buggy than flash right now and we're a good 3/4 years away from any meaningfull switch to H5.
