I think this is a little exaggerated by Lee Brimlow but it's worth noting some of the popular sites including Disney which is one of Apple's good friends these days that you cannot see due to lack of Flash on the iPad. Apple might want to try and force people to use their technologies and continue to pretend like the Adobe Flash platform doesn't matter (whatever the chip on the shoulder is that Jobs has with Adobe, even after early Adobe apps essentially 'made' the Mac more than a memory), but it's too ingrained in todays web experience to be ignored whether they like it or not.

Yup, it drives me crazy too. When developing and testing all the time in the browser Firefox drives me crazy as it seems to love caching the files even though they are newer than the one in the cache, clearly it is as you just published it to test right?

Well thanks to this post on Flex Pasta there is a very easy solution to the problem. A big thank you to Brian for uncovering a solution to the pain.
