G1 News

Whilst Apple push away Adobe’s lustful advances, Google have been only too happy to embrace their essential Flash technology, with the result being the elusive ‘full web experience,’ running on a T-Mobile G1.

Director of mobile platforms at Google, Andy Rubin, was understandably pleased with this collaborative effort: “Adobe Flash is crucial to a rich Internet and content experience on mobile devices and we are thrilled that Google will be one of the first companies along with the Open Handset Alliance to bring Flash technology to the smartphone market.”

When it will actually be on our G1s is unclear, but certainly sooner rather than later given the stable nature the demo was reported to run at.

With this move, the iPhone becomes the only operating system not to run Flash content in some shape or form, despite being equipped with a full HTML browser in Safari.

Adobe still try to court Apple’s affections, however, with word that their new Flash 10 is optimised to perform well on Mac computers. Loosely translated, Adobe were saying: “We love Macs, we love Apple, help us help you on the iPhone!”

With Flash shown to be up and running on the G1, it might just be the thing to spur Jobs and Co. into action…

UPDATE: Here’s a video to see for yourselves the Flashy goodness the G1 will soon have! Very impressive…
