Jobs dealt a serious blow to Adobe on the mobile platform. A lot of people have lost their jobs (and fair to say new opportunities have arisen) as Adobe was forced to re-access priorities.
As someone living amongst this turbulent change, I do think Jobs was a smart cookie, even if I have felt the aftershocks of the decision to bar the flash player on iMobile.
