And who twisted Adobe's arm to provide it (whatever it was, as he says 'porting kit', not a done Flash 10.1) to Nokia alone and nobody else, not even as a binary blob, alpha, beta or whatever on their Adobe labs ? And it's not like it's just up to Nokia what software we install. We don't have to root, jailbreak and spread via torrent, P2P or any of the sort. He gives it to us and we make it work (or discover it is FUBAR). But no, they just point a finger at Nokia and Nokia, with it's quiet policies, is always a good target to point fingers at, because they rarely bother to confirm or deny anything.

I don't give a damn who Adobe sent their porting kit to as long as it's big-business only. And this is not even about the N900 and Maemo (and that is why I'm mildly agitated when it comes to this issue).

Adobe. Could. Have. Given. It. To. Everybody.

But they didn't and don't want to, either because the Flash player is technically FUBAR, simply not ready, or because their Open Screen project is just a misnomer for Smoke Screen Project and they are no better understanding what open development is than 5 years ago - even when their own fate might be depending on it.

But yeah, blame Nokia. Then you can blame Sammy, Moto or HTC in a year when one of their models ends up an official upgrade short, then someone else the year after... Even if Nokia DID make a Flash 10.1 upgrade for the N900, we would have this SAME conversation for the N9. The fish stinks from the head down, and and the Flash fish is not headed by Nokia.
