It's not the N810 that's at fault for slow flash performance; it's a capable piece of hardware. The weak flash performance issue lies in two separate locations.

1) Part of the fault lies with Adobe. The flash runtime is impressive in capability, but needs very fast computers to do normal things. It seems that all popular client-side in-browser environments currently suffer from some form of inefficiency.

2) Part of the fault lies with flash developers. Unfortunately, developers often use their beefy systems as a benchmark for the speed at which things should run. The result is inefficient code. In most cases, there are a number of things that can be done that cut down significantly on processing times. Good flash developers realize this, and the not-as-good-developers don't.

We should be happy that the N810 can view flash at all! It is one of the few (if not only) ultra mobiles that can do it. In the future, the coming IT will likely upgrade to OMAP-3430, which has a 1Ghz rate, and a number of chip/bus enhancements that will yield higher speeds with flash. The speed increase, while noticeable, will likely not be night and day different from the current tablet.
