CubeMe by The Blue Cube, a Google Chrome plug-in has been updated

A recently updated Google Chrome plug-in shows how Apple iPad users will see Adobe Flash on the iPad, or rather not see. CubeMe by The Blue Cube replaces Flash banners and ads with the so called blue lego cube of disappointment.

Apple has yet to support Flash on the iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. Apple CEO Steve Jobs has long claimed Flash runs too slow on the iPhone to be useful and more recently reportedly accused Adobe of being "lazy," describing Flash as "buggy."

As the makers of CubeMe explain: "This extension replaces all Flash content with the ubiquitous blue cube iPhone users are accustomed to seeing. Pretend you're on an iPad!" and "Experience the web the way Steve intended."

According to Adobe CTO Kevin Lynch, Flash is currently used in more than 85 per cent of the top Web sites, including the BBC, Nike, Hulu and Major League Baseball.

Adobe added the company was "on the verge" of Flash Player 10.1 for smartphones with "all but one" of the top manufacturers including Google's Android, RIM's BlackBerry, Nokia, and the Palm Pre planning to adopt it.
