W3C: HTML5 Not Ready, Suggests Developers Hold Off
okay, everybody stop and wait until 2011...
Wow, it would be completely unheard of for industry to jump ahead of the standards committee. Let these guys sit on their butts for another 4 years so they can finish. Everybody, pull out all HTML 5 features, okay? that means you too Apple. Thanks guys!

They're not talking about features.
What they are saying is that it's not a good idea to go "All In" with HTML5 because the standards still haven't been worked out. So until they do, if you choose the wrong one you're ****ed.
Standard HTML, Flash, and Even HTML5 that's NOT video and audio based is pretty safe right now for developers.
Video/audio codecs are still up in the air. Not every company has the reasources of Vimeo or even Youtube to host multiple versions of the same content.
