I hope so. Today I tried to read an article on www.theregister.co.uk and this site is
unfortunately floating a Flash-based advert over the top of each article. When I went to
read one article the N800 browser hung while it tried to display the Flash advert, and
after 20 minutes it still hadn't finished displaying the advert. A further 5 minutes of
"back" button pressing later succeeded in extricating myself from the page and
disabling the Flash plug-in entirely. About 30 minutes later the device shut down because
the battery was low!!
maps.yahoo.com with flash interface doesn't work
www.zillow.com which uses flash doesn't work
Neither of these display video.
They seem to hang forever.
It's not just video where the Flash player is woeful, it's even standard Flash
adverts. I wish sites would not use them but they do, the only option is to
leave Flash disabled - it may as well not have been shipped with the N800.
The Flash player provided with OS 2006 is actually better than the Flash player
provided with OS 2007 as the former will not play certain CPU intensive content
whereas the latter will play such content and consequently sucks up 100% CPU
and hangs the device. I know which I prefer!
