No... Flash is not and will not be supported on any BB handset, only on the PlayBook.

Sorry, but I thought I made it quite 'nice' and clear in my very first post.

I'm not a 'tech' either... but I do understand that Flash is not supported on BlackBerry handsets. Never has been, never will be.

I just dont think its right to make people feel stupid. But thanks for your help. I do now understand flash is not supported on BlackBerry handsets. Never has been, never will be.

Flash is, like insurance. Ya don't know you need it till ya DONT have it. I read that most YouTube videos are moving towards HTML5...I don't know...I just watched a video on FaceBook...FLASH...its like the ¢ symbol and the pasta sauce...its in there!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S that's a GREAT test for a smartphone...does YOUR keyboard have the ¢ symbol??????

Adobe is no longer going to do any further development of mobile Flash.

Devices that already have it can continue to use it, but no new devices will get it.
