Could HTML5 Kill the Need of RIA Tools like Flash , JavaFX or Silverlight ?
Most of us are already familiar with RIAs like Flash , Flex , Silverlight and JavaFX , we see these almost everywhere now , but the newly launched and much anticipated Web Standard which was being worked upon from 2003 , Finally it came up and that too with a Bang right at the face of RIA Masters , Microsoft , Sun , Adobe , How ?

Most of this is also dependent of Microsoft as its the one  being a Browser and a RIA Developer.
