March Madness On The Nexus One With Flash 10.1
| by Rob Jackson on March 19th, 2010 |
It will probably be a couple months before your favorite Android 2.x device gets Adobe’s Flash 10.1 update, but they continue to convince us that we should want it now. Check out this video of the Nexus One with Flash 10.1 tuning into the CBS Sports website where you can watch all the games.
Live. Streaming. Flash. Awesome. Like we needed any more convincing, right?

I’d prefer HTMML 5 video still. And now with Microsoft touting support for it in IE(for whatever thats worth) it looks like everyone is in on supporting HTML 5.

Adobe, you disappointment me. We keep hearing for how long about 10.1 flash? Shut-up or put out- I’m just so sick of it! Love, Steve Jobs

is it just me, but shouldn’t the games be at the same point or close to it on the computer and the phone?? It is a live stream(supposedly).

@Brandon, lag time on the n1 with 3g?
Or his lappy is running windows 7 and is able to stream into the future before real time…

Yeah what is the deal?? why can’t we get a beta of this already?? The Desire RC rom is already on xda and it’s not even out yet. We need a leak.

We can’t take the March Madness with us if Adobe doesn’t release the damn thing.

This is good.
Means we will be able to use flash… I hope it doesn’t slow down the handset.

@ those questioning my post I’m just not a fan of a particular proprietary technology cornering a market like this. Look at us. We all have to wait for Adobe to get in gear so that we can enjoy video from the web. If this were something open we would not be waiting. I’m not saying everything has to be open like a fanboy. I’m just saying that when one company corners a market like this the consumer ends up with the short end of the stick. I’d rather see Hulu and the rest start moving to something that more companies and individuals can implement so we don’t end up in these types of situations.

I also don’t care for the quality I’m seeing out of Flash on non Windows platforms. I believe some may complain about performance on Windows as well.

I guess the coming excuse they have for it not coming out is all hardware must be 4G compatible.

@Phil
While I agree that HTML5 is the better option, the fact that Safari and Internet Explorer are supporting H.264 means we are just moving from a proprietary mess to a patent-encumbered mess.

@redandblack,
My hero is rooted running a fully funtional 2.1 Legend ROM that has flash 10 running on it. If you have a hero and are rooted, over at xda, you can get it too. Its called DarchLegend v4.
