Yea I'm happy with Flash.

I agree on the comments about the X and Droid 2. Ppl's experience with Flash on the latest phones might be different.

On my Droid 1, radiotime.com worked good. Thats all I really tested it against. And a game site someone wanted me to test: evony.com

With the extra RAM and updated LPDDR memory, so far it works nice on my X. Probably better than on my Droid. I rotated the X and the game didnt try to reload. I remember that happening on my Droid.

Yea, I justed tested something. The screen turned off. The game was still there when I unlocked the phone. On my Droid, it would always have to reload when that happened.

I feel folks Flash experience will be a lil better on the latest phones. And I agree, any Flash is better than no Flash. Some stuff I use Chrome 2 Phone for needs Flash.

So far I am happy we finally have it, (my droid is stock) but there is something I don't like about it that I don't know how to change. I will be using flash for listening to an AM news/sportstalk and hopefully Packer games by using their "listen live" feature and it works great for that so far, but how can I turn off the screen and keep the audio feed going?? Is there a way to set it up like Pandora where it keeps running in the background? Any help with this would be appreciated, I don't always have access to keep my phone plugged in and to be able to stream with the screen on which, when I tried it the other day really eats a battery quick. Thanks for any help.

What mine does when the on/off switch is depressed is to cause the screen to go black and the sound to shut off.

But when I press it the second time, the lock screen comes on dimmed, along with the sound. It doesn't seem to be using much battery in this mode.

I have a Droid 1 and use Flash "on demand". I really don't like using it, it slows down my droid, eats up the battery and 9 times out of 10, the video is "not optimized for a mobile phone".

What is really frustrating is coming across a YouTube video that is embedded in a Flash player (for lack of a better term). If you click on it after it loads, you then have the option of going directly to the YouTube player, which works flawlessly. I just hate that you have to first load the flash video and then click on it to get to YouTube. I wish Flash would automatically give you the option to go to YouTube without having to load the Flash video first.
