Flash Cometh To Android

By: Tariq Bamadhaj (Senior Editor)

So last week was a really sad week for me when 2 tablets I wanted to get my hands on were canceled. What’s weird was that they were both canceled on the same day. Sheer coincidence? Do they know something we don’t? Well it seems that my disappointment was short-lived as I awoke this morning to find out that, according to Adobe, Android tablets were going to flood the market by year’s end!

What’s great about this is that I can get my hands on a tablet that supports Flash, something that I use on a daily basis. What’s even better is that I expect them to be cheaper than their Apple counterparts, as is always the case. Archos has already proven this with their $199 7 inch tablet and I expect the 10 inch versions to come in under $300!

Just how well will Flash perform on a tablet? Well, these videos should convince you:

Adobe Flash running on the Tablet

Adobe Air running on the tablet

No word on what specs are under the hood to get such a smooth functioning device but I definitely want one. Even if it’s just the prototype for now.
