Well, have a read through that interview with Jobs fom 1994.

Looking back now after 15+ years it shows that Jobs has a pretty good foresight. Sure, right now everyone is asking for flash, but forcing HTM5 might actually be better in the long run. And the iDevice has actually enough market power to push some decision makers in the right places into the right direction.
