Personally I'm not that interested in Flash but judging by the size of this thread many people want Flash on the n900.

This is highly embarrassing for Adobe and Nokia since neither of them want to take "ownership" of the problem.

If this was more publically visible and the press / bloggers started writing about this or someone launched an active campaign publicizing this problem then Adobe & Nokia would have to do something.

You'd get Steve Jobs saying "I told you so".
Open source people (e.g. Richard Stallman) would say "Adobe/Nokia are evil because their stuff is proprietory"
You'd get Internet standards commitees saying "The web should be open and not hostage to a third-party"
You'd get Microsoft saying "Use Silverlight/Moonlight instead and the source code is available too"

The last thing Adobe/Nokia need is someone highlighting the negative aspects of Flash.


If someone wanted to publically "embarrass" Adobe & nokia into porting Flash.....
