BD- Re: Adobe Flash- …………………………………………….

Thanks for that “interesting” article .

Is this the answer we’ve be looking for re: Snapdragon’s (1-2 year) late to market issue?

Is Adobe Flash the main culprit? If, so why has it taken so long for this to be revealed?????

Are we still not completely out of the woods---- ”…That work is only likely to come to fruition in the second half of this year,…”?

Is Steve Jobs right again--- not going with Adobe Flash?

Snip>>>

“ We thought [smartbooks] would be launched by now, but they're not," Drew told ZDNet UK on Tuesday. "I think one reason is to do with software maturity. We've seen things like Adobe slip — we'd originally scheduled for something like 2009.

ARM and Adobe signed a partnership in late 2008 that was intended to see Flash Player 10 and Air — both rich web platforms — optimised for ARM-based systems. That work is only likely to come to fruition in the second half of this year, when an optimised version of Flash comes out for Android smartphones. As Apple's Steve Jobs recently pointed out, Flash was originally supposed to ship for smartphones in early 2009.
