Im tired of waiting for Adobe to come out with Flash for the motorola droid. I don’t understand why flas was created for the hero but not the faster more expensive motorola droid.

Very Irritating….

[...] already know that Adobe Flash will not be making an appearance on the Android platform this year as we originally expected. At the time Flash 10.1 was delayed, [...]

I give them 1 more month, if I dont have flash by 2010, i sell my G1, and get rid of Tmobile.

simple as that? you hear me tmobile? your slacker like business ethics is going to make you loose my 1500$ a year, then my girlfriends $1500 a year, and then about 7 more people that work for me. Make me an offer Tmobile, otherwise ill be pulling 10 grand from your pockets REAL soon.

Wow Kingcobra2010, what a long winded and inaccurate waste of a read. Do your homework before you spout nonsense.

The Palm Pre is great, it finally caught up to the functionallity of the G1. Also the Android is true multitasking, and (I don’t know how you came to this conclusion) is NOT associated with the ‘Winmo’ software in any way. Are you kidding me? Someone should kick you in the nuts for even suggesting that.

I watched that link fanboy, and I have to say…Whilst typing this I just happen to be listening to streaming music, I have 2 YouTube videos on pause in different windows, switched to a different window, sent a text, made a call, then I got bored and gps’d where the closest chinese resturant (with an app), then I voice searched ‘how to poop’ just for giggles, watched a instructional Japanese video on how to do said pooping, then switched back to my YouTube videos and watched the 1st one, halfway thru the second one I got distracted by my feet and made a short video, uploaded it to Facebook, updated my Facebook, now I’m back here finishing up this paragraph so I can flip over to my other window and watch my other video. I did this all in less than 10 minutes.

Now I am a G1 user, but by no means a fanboy. The iPhone is awesome but limited. The real competition will be between the software in the future. Palmpre is great, Windows mobile is meh, and Android is a waking giant.

Before you buy any phone think long and hard. Do you want a phone that is old tech (iphone) and the only reason you buy it because your friends have one. Or do you want to be the first phone that will impress your friends and will than likely be the standard after people realize its functionality. When the palm pre was released, it was only meant for business persons. The main reason there were complaints because the phone was bought by people who did not need the pre’s functionality and expected a iphone feel. Do not get me wrong. Iphone made the scene and they brought a lot to the table. Now, however, they have not progressed & they have locked out possible functionality because of greed. It reminds me when I was a pc guy (ever since I finished with the vic 20 and commodore 64) but then I changed to mac. Win 7 was the last windows operating system I used because it is just crap (even though more people use windows does not mean it is good – mac is definitely better now). I still use xp for some of my older programs. Just like the iphone was good then but now it just does not meet the standard (more like a teenagers phone now). If you are still using the iphone, then your just letting life pass you by. Once the palm pre gets the flash 10 working on the phone, then it will be more of a dual purpose professional/teenager phone. I can see teenagers playing flash games on the pre while also listening to music, looking at flash trailers of movies while there out with there friends to see what they will watch after a test/dinner, etc. I speculate that once flash hits the mobile pda/netbook/phone market, palm pre will surely be the winner. The droid will run flash just like the winmo phones -> very very slow if your multitasking flash. See example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a47Z-A81HOU. If they used the droid phone to show off flash the same way -> the film would have been laughable (droid does semi multitasking and definitely can not multitask resource hog programs like flash). Droid definitely would have either crashed or your system would start to look like it is in slow mo. If you have a winmo phone you probably know what I mean when i say slow mo. If you want a very good phone, then get a palm pre because in the near future I suspect everyone else will be using the pre if they can weather the misinformation about the phone. PS Do not look at megapixels when you are deciding on your phone pic. 3 vs 5 megapixels will not produce a difference. If you want great pictures then get an slr camera not a camera phone. And if you want great video get an hd camcorder instead of using your phone. Soon palm pre will be able to get vid recording for your youtube pages. Android is just winmo with a different name (hefty, slow and truly untested on its multitasking statement but we will see it fall flat when tested with flash this year).

The only reason that iphone has been around is because it is a phone built around teenager habits with a little business function in it. If you look at webos, then you will see that it is a better match for netbooks. Once flash comes out the battery drain that it will produce on the google os will make it a weaker candidate for the netbook market versus webos. Also once flash comes out for the palm pre, we will see that palm will be able to take a good piece of the teenager iphone market with free flash games instead of paid for iphone apps. The future is here and webos is definitely the winner. Like i said android is just winmo with a different name. You guys need to test the true power comparison of the phone. i am no talking about processor power. Everybody knows that mac can startup, shutdown faster than the comparable pc with similar hdd, ram, vid card, processor. The os is the true decider of speed and functionality. Please test flash running in multiple applications (pre vs droid vs winmo). That will give you true insight. Flash dominates the media market and if the advertising market wants more viewer time then they need to push for more flash on phones. Especially the palm pre phone since it is the best suited phone for the demands of flash currently. But lets see what the test show.
PS If you guys are truly at the tech forefront then you will see that this as a definite task that needs to be performed.

Well, the sooner the better. Android will become a killer app when it can run flash efficiently. Just in time to thwart windows mobile 7 running Silverlight.

Watch out Apple!

you can run the proc at 528mhz, the newer builds will just have to enable this.
