Has anyone used it? Unless I am misreading the reviews it looks as though it plays flash sites. I trust IPF members more than reviews on a purchase app site

It's like many of the other so-called Flash compatible browsers - it 'displays' Flash content by hosting it on the Developer's website not by displaying it directly on the iPad. So it will typically be very delayed, 'jerky' and usually completely unsatisfactory - particularly for video content.

An RDP remote desktop app, such as Splashtop, is the recommended solution from many Members - where the Flash content is hosted on your PC or Mac. There's a free, limited viewing time, version available too, so you can try it without risk.
