I'm not suggesting they would be going in the Pre or any other app store. On the contrary (in fact I wasn't even thinking of the Pre when I wrote that comment). I'm suggesting that the abundance of disposable Flash-ware will only serve to dilute the interests of consumers in quality software period.

It's general quantity versus quality argument, but not limited to the specific source.

As far as the Pre goes however, Flash seems to be somewhat of a necessity since it's not running an OS where developers can actually create real native applications anyway. Without Flash I think they'd be in a much weaker position in fact.
