I was looking at the ipad at the apple store, but half the sites I tried to visit had problems displaying correct (aka no flash) then I looked at the samsung and found it not bad at all... what are your thoughts...
// and basically they cost the same...

to be honest - I don't miss flash on most sites, but if you encounter flash a lot on sites you visit every day the iPad might not be the tool of choice for you.

I can remember maybe 1 time in the past where it was an issue.
I'd send them an email explaining that requiring proprietary web plugins is poor web design.
Not good from an accessibility standpoint either for blind people.

I've read on several review sites (just for fun) that the only tablet that performs as well as a desktop for flash is the RIM Playbook.

you might still give a look to the
notionink Adam, that I was looking forward to before I finally had too much of waiting and bought the ipad2...
