Adobe’s Flash video technology is a “CPU hog” that would drag down the iPad, Jobs claims.
…Apple’s Steve Jobs has reportedly called Adobe’s Flash video technology a “CPU hog”, during a meeting with representatives from The Wall Street Journal, according to an online report.
Apple CEO Steve Jobs demonstrates the iPad at its introduction in January.The Apple CEO also reportedly claimed the company’s forthcoming iPad device would have a battery life of just 1.5 hours if Flash was enabled. Apple list’s the iPad as having: “up to 10 hours of surfing the web on Wi-Fi, watching video or listening to music,” running on the built-in 25Whr rechargeable lithium-polymer battery.
The report claims Jobs sat down with select Wall Street Journal staff to tout the benefits of creating content for the iPad, on the third floor of the News Corporation building in New York as part of a broader media tour.
The report also quotes Jobs as dismissing Flash as “full of security holes,” and “old technology,” suggesting The Wall Street Journal switch to H.264 video compression.
