Adobe Flash on T-Mobile G1 Phone / Google Android

Adobe Flash on T-Mobile G1 Phone / Google Android

By: Peter Chubb | November 18, 2008 | 19 Comments

Andy Rubin was on hand yesterday at Adobe’s MAX event; he helped to show of Flash which was running on the T-Mobile G1. Knowing that the Google Android phone runs Flash, it shows that it is in fact possible, but then other phones have already proved it.

Apple must now be running out of excuses, and could start to harm the reputation of the iPhone if they are not careful. The T-Mobile G1 has done in one month what Apple has not been able to do with the iPhone.

The Flash update is available as an over-the-air update, but it should be available from the Market as well, but we are not certain of that fact. It is nice to know that Google do not mind working with Adobe, and it could only benefit owners of the G1. Please Apple you had better do the same, as you could see some very unhappy customers.

  • Brabbit

    Are u idiot or can’t understand what they just said?. Its NOT available jet for the public will be released soon with some kind of update to de firmware or will be available tru Android Market again is NOT AVAILABLE YET sit back and wait for official release.

    Whoa whoa whoa there Brabbit. You should learn to speak to people politely instead of calling them “idiot”. Especially considering that it wasn’t clearly said if it was available or not.

    “The Flash update is available as an over-the-air update, but it should be available from the Market as well, but we are not certain of that fact.”.

    That is a very ambiguous statement that can be insinuated to mean a number of things. It most likely means it is not out yet, considering the fact that something as major as this is so reclusive, but that is based off our own assumptions.

  • skye

    I just got a G1 this past week. the guy i talked to at tmobile said that flash should be available soon as well as a few other updates. Also they will be releasing a new battery that doesn’t die 6 hours after you unplug the cord.

  • http://www.cachorrogrande.com.br H. Romeo Pinto

    Ok, I just figured out! But, surelly it is not the best way.

  • jerm

    This all is bs just like the fact you can’t use the g1 as a modem. Major bulls#*t what a great phone tmobile. So don’t get your hopes up on flash because by the time it get to the phone the phone will be old and out dated or just plain trash.

  • Andre’ T.

    Can I get an email or some notification on my phone, when the Adobe Flash will be available for the G1?

    Thanks in advance.
