iPad offers to beat everyone’s ‘best’ browsing experience. Best, as in the greatest experience with web browsing. Anyone has had a bad day with web browsing, even the most powerful devices on the market can’t do as well as expected. So will this sleek, .5 inch thick iPad device give you the best one you will ever have?  From what we have heard, it can.

Loading websites is  smooth, and fast, and with a display screen that offers out of this world touch response, there are so many things you can do. In all actuality the saying “let your fingers do the walking” could quite literally be used for the iPad.  With all of the wonderful touch features it possesses there isn’t much you can’t do all with a touch, tap, pinch or poke of the screen.  As if that isn’t enough, you also have the usual perks you get from surfing the web with other personal computing devices like bookmarks bar, tab grid, and toolbar drop downs – all with marked, even spectacular improvement. But do all these give you “the best browsing experience you’ve ever had”? Well, not exactly.

ONe of the biggest drawbacks of the iPad is that it doesn’t support Flash, a web standard.  Since nearly all websites in the world use Flash,   entire websites are even made using Flash. Nearly all websites use it,  and since iPad does not support Flash, and may not even consider using Flash, ever, this creates a huge dent in the web browsing experience that can be had with iPad. And while Apple has been quite successful in trying to replace Flash with its own HTML5, the websites that support this tool are probably fewer than 1% of all websites on the web.

So obviously this is a huge problem.  Even if Apple has taken web browsing to a newer level and even when Apple ensured that the device has nearly everything that is needed to enhance the experience of browsing the web,  users may still get a generally bumpy experience when surfing online. For  users like you, you may never experience a perfect visit to many many websites. Certain elements of many websites may not work. And even if they do, they may not work well. If you love visiting websites that are fully supported with Flash, like MTV, for example, you may find that the website will not work on the iPad.

Even when surfing with Safari is weirdly brilliant, not being able to load some of websites’ contents may prove to be a very frustrating experience.
