But if someone who happens to own an iPad *now* (or when it really
ships) and wants to view a web page *now* with content that is
important to them *now* that just happens to include a flash vid or
other flash content, that's more than a bit of a problem, isn't it?


You don't have to wait for your iPad to see video without the noxious
stench of Flash. HTML5 specs implementation by browser:

That's nice. So what if the video you need to look at is not in HTML5?
