Anyways, yeah I like how they are working on a Full version of Flash for mobile devices... to me it sounds like they plan to eventually put the Full Flash 10 onto the Zii... If they do, it will mark the Zii as the first mobile device to fully support all flash content. Which will make it one huge step above all other mobiles simply for it's web browser. EDIT: Sorry, ^ I mean HANDHELD mobile device. Obviously things like laptops and netbooks are also mobile devices.... Duh.  | ||
