I find it hard to believe that the guys from Arc90 didn't know that it was Readability the second they saw it; maybe it's because I've used Readability for a while, but I just knew the second that I saw that familiar look and feel of the title and text that it was Readability powering it.

Apple does allow Flash to be installed on Mac OS X, and actually includes it with the OS.

Right now there is not a way to "install" something on iPhone OS that would then become available to Safari and other apps. To do that, they'd have to build a plug-in architecture for iPhone OS.

I found it to be pretty interesting.

I tend to fall on Apple's side when it comes to not wanting to be forced to support a technology that it is against. That being said, seeing the CPU usage on these simple HTML5/JS games was a bit shocking - no idea if that is due to sub-standard coding, or if it's inherent in JS, but it seems to blow a hole in the "Flash is a resource hog" argument.

I am wondering if better developer tools for creating graphical HTML5/JS and/or JIT compilation will help with this. Clearly an iPhone is capable of amazing things graphically, but that's all been on the native app side.

It was originally an error on the Crunchgear article, but they fixed it later on.

But gaming is a much lesser experience with a trackpad then it is with mouse and keyboard; my Bloonz scores with and without a mouse prove it. Also, this doesn't get around the many games that require a keyboard.

Wow - that looks like Myspace 1.5. And not in a good way - this site is confusing.
