Despite of discussion going on here I finally bought some SD card and installed NITDroid to check flash 10.1 on N900.

Whole installation process was very smooth with new dj_steve toys . Thanks for that guys!

As soon as I could I've hit my testing flash builds. I was in shock.
Flash 10.1 on NITDroid not GPU drivers as we know, half ported on device that wasn't intent to have Android at all, with some bottlenecks gave me this result.

50000 iterations drawing some boring squares

NITDroid / N900 /All overkills
using old drawing API (FLASH 9) 370ms
using (flash 10+) drawing API 17ms

my old good PC AMD 3200+ 2GB RAM basic GPU
using old drawing API (FLASH 9) 130ms
using (flash 10+) drawing API 17ms

Give me only one reason why as Flash developer should keep developing in flash 9 especially for mobile web based apps. Then I will give you around 50 why I should. And all will be for good for customer.

Transition in Flash development will take a while but its required both. Technology / hardware support, and content needs to be updated.
It will not happen one magic day but for sure will happen. Every single production taking place considering mobile market since access to Android market is lucrative opportunity that cannot be missed.

Lack of Flash 10.1 on Maemo is huge drawback for Nokia. They just missed big point and potential. Doesn't matter what you think about flash or all crappy pseudo devs that working on bad flash reputation 24/7. Even they can succeeds because at the end of the day the right moment is important. To get content that everyone is talking about. Even if you are not enjoying it at least you have seen it. That's what is matter in today's world.

"I wont here and now."

Another one thing is Flash dev community is big, sharing a lot of stuff in Open Source manner. It is potential group of ppl that can provide tones of apps even you are ignorant to flash and don;t know to many or just don't need it. Trust me with AIR on n900 I would be able to reproduce most of existing apps in AS3, much quicker, looks nicer and in some cases will be faster and less processor hog like sometimes unfortunately happening here.

Big thanks to you dj_steve once again for NITDROID port. it is not ideal but just for Flash development purposes good enough to at least check how it works and feels on it. Shame ... since Memo OS is much better and polished OS IMHO. Flash 10.1 and AIR could make it complete for many ppl here I believe.

I am keep running some performance tests and thinking about abandon flaemo flash 9 support because it requires 2x more time and effort to keep all this compatibility issues on track. And still the last question remains. Is it worth it? Flash 9 content It's a way to slow. People here seems to be happy with Flash 9 basically don't need anything more from flash or just don't using it at all. Those who wont more and keep up with current version will find the other way anyway...

If somebody here is interesting in flash development for mobile devices and need some help or want to help please drop me an email.

All the best folks
