The only reason I complain is that the lack of proper Flash support is a big disadvantage of otherwise great device. Also, stop the ********. Hardware Flash acceleration is a doable issue. I'm not asking N900 to give me blowjob or make coffee. It's a pity that you don't comprehend the difference.
So, where is that public HW accelerated Adobe ARM Linux Flash player build ? It's not like we don't want Flash10.1 on the N900 (well, as of late I kind of have second thoughts about this), but what's the point in sinking money and/or effort into something that has shabby performance and no promise of not going through the same ordeal again when the next version is released ? And as for hardware acceleration - I have the feeling that there is a lot of smoke-and-mirrors going on as to what is actually accelerated on what platform and on what devices.
