Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ? - Page 11 - maemo.org

to clear up some confusion:

@jalyst
actually, fennec is officially distributed by mozilla for windows, mac os x, and linux, but of course you could always just compile it anyway. its very cool, really.

under 'development tools' at the bottom

@immi.shk
what jalyst said is the long and short of it. it doesnt matter at all whether the windows binary of fennec has a flash plugin bundled; it would be surprising anyway.
i think it is unlikely that adobe will do this, though, because they are phasing out mobile flash.

Oh yeah for dev purposes I could see the usefulness.

jolo's explained that's not really the issue, see earlier in the thread.

Has anybody tried the .so file from the N900? Some other binaries have worked on my N9 (In fact I am not so sure, but trying to make wordpress work, I managed to reach the splash screen)

If flash will never work at least they should release the fennec version that they have that should be fast and non-buggy .
p.s: In early N9 demos there was a fennec icon in the app grid

Some good news for a change. We have finally sorted out the issues with Firefox for the N9 and have Adobe Flash certified. This means we should be able to get these to the Store quite soon. Sorry for the silence on this topic, but it has been a roller-coaster ride for these apps.

jolo, is flash for N9 standard NPAPI browser plugin? If yes can be used in other browsers (which support plugins)? And will be working also on N900?

The way that Adobe Certification works is that it gets certified per browser and device, so right now it is just working for Firefox on the N9.
