It’s just a matter of politics: they won’t be removing Flash because they are partnered with Adobe. Imagine it the other way: Apple partnered with Google. Which closed source technology would have been dropped? Flash or H.264?

Firefox 4 will support WebM too. Since Apple won’t support flash and Firefox won’t support H.264, 2 codecs are needed for HTML5 video across all browsers. Miro Video Converter (http://www.mirovideoconverter.com/) is awesome at converting to WebM – just drag and drop. (And no, I don’t work for them.)
