Steve Jobs open letter regarding Flash

Apple and Adobe have been fighting over Flash on the iPhone and iPad for a while now, and now Apple CEO Steve Jobs has personally joined the fight, writing an open letter criticizing Flash for being closed and inefficient. Jobs said,

Flash was created during the PC era – for PCs and mice. Flash is a successful business for Adobe, and we can understand why they want to push it beyond PCs. But the mobile era is about low power devices, touch interfaces and open web standards – all areas where Flash falls short.
