HTC and Adobe have created the first Android phone that supports Adobe Flash! This is huge news since Apple has yet to release Flash for the iPhone, citing performance issues.

Well I just placed my order for my iPhone 3Gs, but only after AT&T/Apple changed their upgrade policies.
Previous I posted, “Apple and AT&T Give Existing iPhone Customers the Finger…, where AT&T and Apple said any previous iPhone owner is getting screwed if they want to upgrade to the new phone.
NOW, current iPhone users (remember I just got my first iPhone 2 months ago) can upgrade to the new iPhone 3Gs at the price of $199 for the 16GB & $299 for the 32GB.
This comes about due to a great number (actually 16,673) of angry Twitter users that signed the Twitition (Twitter + Online Petition app).
To AT&T & Apple, thank you for listening.

“The Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) was designed for high-performance transmission of audio, video, and data between Adobe Flash Platform technologies, including Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR. RTMP is now available as an open specification to create products and technology that enable delivery of video, audio, and data in the open AMF, SWF, FLV, and F4V formats compatible with Adobe Flash Player.”
