@mrojas: Haha, preach on brother! :D Flame him dry..

Well anyways, I do see your point that his brand of 'journalism' may be injuring Nokia in this case. But personally, I think his tweets about crashes are affecting a very very very small percentage of users out there, compared to his initial (generally favorable) (p)review.

So we still have "reasons" why we don't have flash 10 and Divx on Maemo
and no excuses being made for Linux because it has both.
The world of end users is not full of code writers and programmers.
One OS has it and the other doesn't so from an end user viewpoint the software is better on a device with equal hardware that has flash and divx.

Are you talking about divx in the web browser or media player? My n810 can handle divx well with mplayer.

aironeous: Nobody in the handheld mobile space has flash 10. Nobody. Adobe hasn't made an ARM version of Flash 10 yet.

And in this thread, we're getting mplayer up and running for the N900. That will play any non-HD files that you want. And we're getting VLC too.

Take a deep breath. It'll be ok.

Arm and Adobe have supposedly been working on a version of FlashPlayer 10 and AIR for ARM devices (inlcuding OMAP3) since last November according to their press release.

We really need a troll stamp. After enough members apply the stamp to a troll, they wind up with a permanent Shrek avatar.

After today, I fear that I, among others, would unfairly have that attached to me for merely having opposing ideals or viewpoints.

Well... I was partly joking. :p

I don't see you as a troll gerbick. It should be obvious though who in this thread is working hard on that status...

Reviewing anything before it's finalized and in production without telling readers it's not a finalized build = bad. If you are going to do that (and your welcome too, lots of people want to know) point out that you do not have a finalized build and there could be physical or firmware differences.

As for the better comment no duh? I would hope a product released later would be better than products released a year earlier. If not then you should think about changing businesses..

naw dude. I didn't take your jest serious.

I'm just thinking it's best that I just quit and leave. I see that other thought patterns and questions aren't allowed here by certain, if not all, people.

I can't fall into lockstep like that. I don't do it with Windows, Mac, Linux, Unix, corporate America... I just can't do it.
