Heyho,
Ok, Flash-Video will be substituted by HTML5. I got no problem with that, but aren't people forgetting about other rich-media flash sites, like ad-agency-websites, microsites about movies and all other cool entertainment experiences (see http://www.thefwa.com)?
What about them?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not that big fan of flash due performance issues but I think the web would not be the same without some of those great flash websites.
But to be honest, I don't see how flash can be ported to touch devices. The experience without a pointing device is so much different because there is no "hover"-action to be triggered when moving a cursor over a certain area.
I guess we'll have to see how many will port their flash-sites to the ipad in form of apps (I read an article of the upcoming version of flash, which can indeed compile flash projects into iphone/ipad apps) or if there are going to be more html5-driven effects and multiple versions of websites, just like in the old days when you decided between "low bandwith" and "high bandwith"
