Sad news for those of you who are not doing tweaks on their system and just use it as it is, cuz Adobe just announced - there will not be flash for the milestone (suppose as well for the droid). Adobe raised the minimum hardware to a Cortex A8 800MHZ CPU and so Droid and Milestone are done with it!
Motorola was asked to the announcement and just replied, that "there are devices after the droid, capable of flash" - so just buy them. This is a little crappy, because all of you guys surely remember the youtube-movie by adobe, where chief of project Adrian Ludwig showed Flash 10.1 on THE DROID.
So what is the deal? Is moto having an ally with adobe to push new devices? or was it just to hard for adobe to implement flash on the droid? Whats your oppinion on it?
Verizon's Samsung Fascinate hasn’t been released yet, but the system dump has been available for about 2 days now, mostly untouched and unexplored.
Until today that is, when Justin Case (who you may remember from blowing the cover off Google’s Licensing Verification Library) and Jamezelle took it apart and ripped out the 6 live wallpapers exclusive to the device.
BGR reports that the Motorola Droid 2 has the lowest return rate on VZW and the signal fluctuation issue is supposedly non-existant.
Droid 2 owners, your thoughts?.

On the fence about the Motorola DROID 2? Wondering if people are happy with the device? Well, we have been told that the Motorola DROID 2, according to one of our connects, has the lowest smartphone return rate on Verizon Wireless. Not only are people apparently thrilled with the device, but that pesky fluctuation issue with the antenna doesn’t seem to be a problem either, as we have also been informed that the DROID 2 has one of the lowest dropped call rates on the carrier. Who knew.
Remember that big, honking red-and-black HTC slider that dwarfed an EVO 4G? It's back sporting Verizon colors just as we were told, and with a few more confirmed specifications thanks to the ever-reliable FCC. The HTC "PD42100" is still missing a proper internal codename, but test reports confirm it's ready for at least CDMA 2000 and GSM 850 plus EV-DO Rev. A, Bluetooth and 802.11b/g/n WiFi at 2.4GHz frequencies.
There's no word on that 1.2GHz processor or 4-inch display, but it's clear we're looking at some chunky chiclet keys and there's definitely a removable battery. We can't wait to get our hands on what surely looks like the new king of Droids. HTC's dual-mode Android slider at the FCC
Update: As it turns out, the size of the screen has been staring us in the face for hours -- we just had to think back to high school geometry class, specifically the Pythagorean Theorem.
Starting with the FCC's handy-dandy picture of the phone's rear next to a square ruler, we had only to superimpose an image of the front on top, then calculate the diagonal (after translating to inches, of course) to discover it was a 4-inch display all along. Oh, and the phone has EV-DO Rev. A for data

After a quick glance at the charts above, what else needs to be said? Quantcast's latest report reveals Android continues the upwards trend on it's quest to dominate the mobile industry. Up nearly 2% for last month, Android users now represent 25% of the total mobile web consumption. Apple's mobile iOS has been hit hard losing the most market share, down nearly 11% on the year. This past quarter we had a run of new high-end Android phones hit the US market including the Motorola Droid X, Motorola Droid 2, HTC EVO 4G, Samsung Vibrant, and Samsung Captivate. I'm sure that accounted for good portion of the growth. On the other hand, how much of the loss is reflected by the lack of inventory Apple experienced during the iPhone 4 launch?
With the line up of Android Tablets and Android Phones slated for release during the upcoming quarter, one can only guess the Android community will continue to grow by leaps and bound.
