Clearly Apple is giving users the impression that the iPad supports Flash. Perhaps not overtly, but according to 9to5Mac, a recent Apple video shows what appears to be Flash advertisements running on the iPad. While there is still time to add Flash as an option before the iPad is released, the verdict is that it still lacks it as an option.

What does this mean to you?

Sending mixed signals? This is certainly my impression and it is something Apple needs to get out in the open. Are they supporting Flash or not? While many Apple fans don’t seem to mind, as Flash has a nasty habit of running like garbage on the Mac, it does not mean this would necessarily be the case with other Apple products. So what’s it going to be, Apple? Flash or no Flash?
