    iPad does support Java Script and HTML 5. Google and Microsoft recently stated that HTML5 is the future. Even currently , almost all the reputed and known websites like NY Times,MSNBC.com,Ntional Geographic Channel and many thousand more stream video to iPad.

    You can watch full length movies and full episodes of TV shows on iPad for free without a problem.Watching on iPad is much better than computer because on computer , you get lot of add banners, annoying commercials and pop ups but on iPad you get only movies.

    I have MacBook pro, iMac,iPhone 3G S and iPad. After getting iPad , I stopp using my MacBook Pro because I can do almost all my office work on iPad it has iWork which is Mac version of MS Office. If the work is very complicated then I access my home computer iMac or office computer IBM by my iPad anode get the work done.

    I even have SAP running on my iPad which is incredible.I watch movies and tv shows online on iPad so don't believe people who say website won't work on iPad. It's a complete lie.

    Lot of people talk about devices without trying them. I own iPad and almost all the new gadgets, I know iPad can play video from almost all the sites.

    You don't require Flash to play video anymore.

    One of the morons wrote you can't see ipads screen in sunlight but fact is you can easily see the screen and why would you be standing in the sunlight anyway?

    Ipads are not for those homeless people who who stand at the entry of freeway under scorching sunlight to get some donation.

    Source(s): Own iPad , it's phenomenal. And I love it because it doesn't support Flash. I don't like add banners and pop ups while watching movies online. iPad streams all kinds of movies online without flash. RIP flash Welcome HTML5

    iPad does not and will not support Java... there will be no Java runtime on the iPad.

    Also, the iPad will not run Flash.

    Apple and Adobe are actually trading blows since Apple announced that Flash was not good enough to be on the iPad.

    Hello friend!!

    Apple Ipad does not support Adobe flash player. This is one of the major disadvantages of Ipad.

    Also you cannot have a good view of the Ipad screen under sunlight.

    The Ipad, as of now, cannot replace the laptop. Right now, its just a link between a smart phone and a laptop.

    More about Ipad and all its features, You can read from my article whose url is given below.

    It is near impossible to watch movies online for free or at least is safe and virus free as there are server costs and such that need to be paid and they have to make money somehow to pay them. Allot of the free sites do so nefariously to pay them.

    If your looking for a safe reliable site to watch movies online try http://bit.do/Ipadmovies as my family has been using them for years to watch/download movies online. They have all the latest movies with no advertising and no buffering on their streaming videos and they even have direct downloads, no torrents. It is absolutely the only site in this category that I trust my kids to use safely.

    If your trying to watch movies on your Ipad try http://bit.do/Ipadmovies because you can watch the original high resolution AVI, the site works with any device and since you can direct download your movies, there is no need for a proxy.

    I've been burned way too many times and found myself with Spyware or a virus on my computer after using many of the free sites to watch movies online. Its not so free when you have to put hours and hours into removing the crap I got from them. If you are looking for a website that is safe and reliable give them a try.

    Truly, there is no assessment absolutely....simply because watching TV relies on the gunky creativeness of a Tv set entertainer who's main concerns are budget, ratings and popularity and Hell with theme integrity, or, for example, anything truly creative.
