BTW, http://www.adobe.com/support/securit...apsa09-03.html (aka remote code execution vulnerability, theoretically possible to exploit on ARM but not done yet).
Adobe has already released the 9.x i386 update, but AFAIK not the ARM one and it's still unknown if they're going to release it.

You don't even want to know how difficult it was to share that sort of thing inside.
Ever hear the expression "pushing rope"?

I was a feedback analyst. My job was to mine data, identify trends/risks, and provide feedback.
No one wanted any.
The end.

"Pushing rope"?
Not at all. Adobe doesn't do flash because they feel generous. This isn't open source; it's a business. Flash enables commerce, and any device that can't play it, can't participate. That eventually means less revenue back to Adobe.
If we can show a significant set of potential customers that are not going to participate in their business food chain, then they will be more inclined to take action.
We need to let Adobe and Nokia - both - know that they have a large set of customers to serve. And, since I just got my N810, I'm in no mood to fork over a bunch of money on whatever the next model is, especially if it "comes with" a monthly data plan! If that's their answer, then this is probably the LAST Nokia product I will ever buy.

But I guess we all agree that Nokia could do way better of course.
