But Not on BlackBerry?

Good news, bad news, perhaps…

On Ars Technica this morning:

Flash 10 coming to a non-Apple smartphone near you in 2010

“Adobe says that Flash 10—the full version, not just Lite—will be available on a number of smartphones by 2010. That list does not include the iPhone, but it does include Windows Mobile, Symbian, and even Palm webOS.”


No mention of BlackBerry, but, as some of the comments go, that may not necessarily be a bad thing. There’s nothing worse than having to wait for a totally pointless, dog-slow Flash animation to load when there’s no “click here to escape” link; OTOH, so many Web designers/content providers can’t seem to get it in their heads how despicable they’re being. On a totally other hand, though, there are some pretty hysterical Flash things out there that I’d not want to miss.     :::sigh:::
