What goes better with a brand new Freescale
smartbook reference design than a little Flash? An actual price and a release date, maybe, but Flash isn't too shabby either. That, naturally, comes courtesy of a little help from Adobe, who worked with Freescale and Movial to get Flash 10.1 up and running on Freescale's i.MX51 family of processors -- which, incidentally, power a range of other mobile devices in addition to smartbooks you can't buy. Still nothing in the way of demos or anything, unfortunately, but Freescale says that the first devices ready to support Flash 10.1 will indeed be smartbooks.
"...but Flash isn't too shabby either."
Unless it's running on the Nexus One, then it seems to be all kinds of shabby.
@jon Or any other platform.
Since I personally don't own a PC with 64-bit, but a friend does, I need to ask: Has Adobe released 64-bit Flash yet?

Google, it's crazy I'm telling ya.
@Wassa
So the answer is "no".
Actually, I was more wondering if Engadgeteers knew of any beta or unofficial news. But, thanks anyway.
Because Engadget didn't make it clear, i.MX is Freescale's ARM platform.
they started to make different chips now juts to run fat crapwares cool. Because all those i7 i8 i2 CPU just cant keep the heat up Can't wait for a dedicated chip to load endgadget site faster
