Newspaper and magazine publishers aren't the only ones finalizing their iPad strategies. As first reported by The Other Mac Blog, CBS.com's Web site began displaying "a couple of strange 'iPad --
test' video links," notes MacRumors. After investigating further, MacRumors found that clicking on these 'iPad' labeled links in one's normal desktop browser brings you to the usual Flash versions of
these videos.
The iPad would't support these files because Apple doesn't support Flash. "However, if you visit CBS.com using the iPad SDK Simulator or spoofing your browser's User-Agent to
impersonate an iPad, you are sent to a different version of the video," reports MacRumors. The finding doesn't bode well for Flash-maker Adobe, which has fought long and hard to popularize its
streaming technology among publishers and consumers alike.
