Steve Job’s: Freedom of Expression vs. Invention
It’s hard to argue with Steve’s points although I do think he ignored the mention of unfairly rejecting…
“…cross-compiled Flash apps are an entirely different matter: They run as native Objective C code, and Apple has a chance to review them for performance.
