LOL, that's pretty funny.
But silliness aside, html 5 is still pretty new and under-implemented in most places. I suspect that Apple is waiting to see for sure (even though they're telling us it will take off) that html 5 will make flash and video plugins obsolete before they redesign their website.
My opinion: flash will stay, but all these different video plugins will disappear for the most part, except for an oddball here and there.
