Following up on Apple’s announcement of the iPad CEO Steve Jobs met with employees at Town Hall at One Infinite Loop Apple’s Silicon Valley headquarters, for a rip raoring Q & A session. One Infinite Loop, Apple’s street address, is a programming in-joke — it refers to a routine that never ends. This time, the big topics included Google and Adobe’s Flash. His comments were a stark response to Google’s recently relaesed Android-powered handset, the Nexus One, on Jan. 5. Jobs, characteristically, did not mince words as he spoke to the assembled, according to a person who was there who could not be named because this person is not authorized by Apple to speak with the press. On Google “We did not enter the search business,” Jobs said according to wired.com from an anonymous employee who was present at Jobs rant. “They entered the phone business. Make no mistake they want to kill the iPhone. We won’t let them, he says. Someone else asks something on a different topic, but there’s no getting Jobs off this rant. I want to go back to that other question first and say one more thing, he says. This don’t be evil mantra: ‘It’s bullshit.’ Audience roars.” About Adobe, Jobs reported said “They are lazy, Jobs says. They have all this potential to do interesting things but they just refuse to do it. They don’t do anything with the approaches that Apple is taking, like Carbon. Apple does not support Flash because it is so buggy, he says. Whenever a Mac crashes more often than not it’s because of Flash. No one will be using Flash, he says. The world is moving to HTML5.” Casey Kazan via wired.com
