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.
An update on the problem page I'm accessing on theregsiter.co.uk web site.
It's this page: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/02/08/rtfm_episode_3
This article has a Flash advert in the right-hand column. However, if you view the page on the N800 maemo-launcher consumes 95%+ CPU/20% MEM. The browser application is rendered unresponsive but can be killed, which is generally the only option. Interestingly if Optimised View is enabled, the Flash advert that should appear in the right-hand column floats over the main page in the top left corner - CPU is still through the roof however.
It's ironic that the advert in question is by Crucial with the tag line "Is your
computer running slowly?" - I kid you not... :)
