If Adobe wants to at least make a case that Flash should be used instead of HTML5 they better get their butts moving. Otherwise, they better not cry when the percentage of Flash Player on users' browsers slowly drops.]]>Feb 25th 2010 12:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/Feb 25th 2010 1:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/It's decisions like these that undermine Adobe's credibility in its statements about Flash. Like, Adobe going after Apple for functioning as an obstacle between millions of iPhone users and Flash, all while continuously referring to Flash 10 without releasing it. It just gives Adobe Flash this air of desperation, while creating all of this anxiety that makes people wish someone would just do away with Flash entirely somehow. ]]>Feb 25th 2010 1:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/Actually, I think its pretty smart. Microsoft set the bar pretty high on what the hardware requirements had to be for Windows 7 Phone devices and chances are that flash will run ALOT better on windows 7 phones (Better graphics, processor, memory, screen, etc) than it would on 6.5 (HD2 excluded).

This way, you won't see posts everywhere saying how flash is crap on winmo 6.5 devices. At this point you just have to hope that you can get the upgrade, but with the way it looks, doubtful even with the HD2

They just started supporting video cards, and that version is still a beta. Isn't that lazy considering web developers (flash is now mostly ads and games) are moving away from flash and big sites like youtube are doing that too?

Example: I got banned for a couple of days (I think.. No Email, no message, could log in, just couldn't use the comment box) and I assume it was because I referenced Austin powers with "Shat on a turtle.." (YouTube it if you don't know what I'm talking about) on the recent Microsoft Turtle post..

Then there seems to be the odd dissapearing comment.. no " Removed by Engadget" or "User Banned because of - Insert Reason -"... just random child replies with no parents..


I'm confused as well..]]>Feb 25th 2010 2:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/Feb 25th 2010 12:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/Feb 25th 2010 12:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/25/adobe-taking-a-pass-on-flash-10-1-for-winmo-6-5-will-go-straigh/I agree - they should also drop flash support for Windows XP and Vista, given that they aren't 'fresh' anymore.
