This info is half a year old. It could be that Adobe and/or Nokia have changed their minds.

Yes. But why would they change their minds if they already got it working on the N900?

That is very confusing:confused::confused: Why not? Adobe used n900 to announce the flash 10.1 on mobile devices. Is nokia the problem????

If we knew the answer to that, this thread would not exist

I don't know either, but technical reasons, business reasons,..?

We can only speculate of course, but

a) they never actually had it working, it was a mockup
b) they switched priorities and think every pair of hands is needed for work on Android
c) the Nokia team he refers to is not Adobe's team but ACTUAL Nokia
d) the Nokia team switched priorities to Symbian
e) he doesn't say it's coming to the N900. He ambiguously says something along the lines 'it ships with 9.4, we'll show a prerelease of 10.1 and will release it to Nokia devices in 2010'
f) TI never delivered on the hardware acceleration/driver front
g) Nokia is dropping/freezing Flash support altogether and moving to the WebKit/HTML5 camp
h) It's not ready yet and will not be ready in the timeframe the N900 will get updates
i) _______ (favourite conspiracy theory)


You can pick multiple choices if you want to.

I don`t care about Flash 10.1 at the moment....my phone does what I need....meaning that:

1) I can stream justintv flash content on my 900Mhz oc phone
2) I can stream catchup tv world cup streams on low bandwidth
3) I`m happy so far!

Let's hope we'll get updates to the browser to support HTML5 and decent WebKit browser too.

The only thing I miss about a decent Flash implementation is Google maps/Streetview.

I think Nokia have more important things to work on than Flash (closed, ill-supported on platforms except Windows and exclusionary) .

We'd be better off with Silverlight/Moonlight - at least it's open source!!!!!!

Here is one user buying a G1 for the flash/air love.

Nobody wants to be accountable to a release date, they obviously have chosen that other development is more of a priority. Pity as I really like maemo and the whole linux phone/tablet thing.

Since I enjoy as3 so much I have to say goodbye. Andorid is where all the flash devs will end up and I predict an explosion of flash mobile targeted content. The development of the new wave of mobile devices inspired by apples success is the next biggest thing for flash/air. If the success of the mobile version is anywhere near the success of flash games .etc designed for the desktop, you cant deny it will be insane! Pity maemo wont be a part of it developing :(

Hm, are you sure Flash actually WILL be available for the G1 ? I know FroYo has been hacked onto the G1, but does Flash actually work ? Asking this as the G1 is way, way below Flash for Android minimum requirements.

woops meant the nexus one and flash 10.1 and air are officially supported.
