Anonymous, 30 Jun 2012You have been living under a rock. Heard of Apple? Heard of... moreeven tho your comment is 3 months ago, i must say something because it bothers me. That is your English comprehension. more than 2 cores does not equal 2 cores. he said "more than 2 cores". If I have more than 2 apples in my hand, it doesn't mean I have 2 apples in my hand, but it means i have MORE than 2 apples in my hand.

This is just ridiculous. I've been using Symbian for 10 years and never had flash. That was ok with my old dumb phones, but when I started getting more capable phones I realized I couldn't see my favorite flash sites, which still are a lot in Brazil. Now, I am ditching Nokia for Samsung's exactly because Android do have flash support and now this.
Interesting enough, Symbian never had flash and nobody gave much thought to it. So, why just because Mr. Jobs once said that Flash was trash, it has to be ended, when iphone doesn't even offer it... as symbian??? Flash should be made open source or whatever. HTML5 is around for some time and how many sites changed for this thing in Brazil???? Little. Terra is transmitting their Olimpics here using Flash on Android. Fortunately, we do have the apks around so having it or not having it in the play store will not make any difference. Yep, it won't stay forever, but neither will my phone. So, no worries.

The aspect ratio is wrong, buffering is slow and it refuse to work in non default resolution. Over at vimeo html 5 doesn't even work at all. Flash works perfectly on my phone. Even 1080p streaming videos plays without lag.

How hard is to people understand that HTML5 is the now and the future! It's a standard! Google already adopted it on everything, the thing is you don't notice, no plugin required!

No matter, it works fine in Firefox for Android and probably will for a while.
Turns out the latest Firefox is also way faster than Chrome for Android anyway. (Funny how things turned around lately)

Anonymous, 01 Jul 2012This is very unfortunately disappointing esp for those apps... moreI expect Adobe Air to still be include in the android market, meaning application that require 'flash' will still work.
