Apple iPad's lack of Flash is a clever move to limit access to porn on this device that would otherwise seem ideal for it's delivery. iPad could be porn's ultimate crack delivery system.
Most porn sites deliver video via Flash. Very few use alternatives like SilverLight or QuickTime. Very few would use something as modern as HTML5.
And most porn sites are created once and rarely re-visited by their creators, who typically move on to creating the next site.
This leads me to believe that the unspoken truth behind Apple's anti-Flash stance is actually a diabolical stratagem on their part to limit access to adult entertainment and keep the iPad from becoming what it would otherwise inevitably become - the ultimate porn delivery system.
