Adobe has already gotten a start with its m. site, which aggregates sites like Kongregate (Flash games), The Sims 3, Sky Sports, and BBC News that play nicer with the Flash app than other unoptimized sites might.Īdobe has spent months struggling to make a case for Flash on mobile phones. That said, it's certainly in Adobe's best interests to smooth out the process and bring more players on board. Even higher-end phones lack many of the hardware capabilities necessary to silkily handle HD streaming TV or games that perform at peak on a PC that's been outfitted with an able graphics chip. "We don't expect Flash content to work exactly the same way on the mobile phone as they would for the desktop," an Adobe spokesperson told CNET during an interview.
Just as mobile-optimized Web sites are significantly easier on the eye, the Flash Player will have better luck with Web sites made with mobile Flash in mind. Still, it was watchable on the whole, and it beats having that content blocked.īefore launching an attack on Adobe, keep in mind that touch-and-go performance of the Flash Player isn't entirely on Adobe's shoulders.
CNET TV, for instance, played audio perfectly, but video playback wasn't always up to speed. Video playback, Flash graphics and menus, and Flash games ranged from faithfully rendered to choppy to static. We took some time to play with Flash Player 10.1 on a Droid X demo unit, and found performance to be hit and miss. Flash Player 10.1 is bundled with the Android 2.2 update and makes it possible, when enabled, to visit Flash-compatible Web sites from the browser of any Android phone running OS 2.2 (Froyo). Adobe's Flash Player 10.1 makes its way today onto Motorola Droid X phones (Verizon Wireless), in tandem with the rollout of Android 2.2 we've been expecting for this device.
