Just thought of something.

Some of my favorite porn sites use flash!
I thought that was the only reason people cared about having flash on their phones!

Lets leave Flash in the Past...

Think about it, most websites have either optimized their websites for awesome mobile versions or cleaned up their sites to run fully on any HTML browser. What do we really need flash for? The only think I can think of are embedded movies or games. Games can be taken care of by making an app out of it. If you offer a free game online, offer a free game in one of the app stores. Hell if it's a popular game, people would be willing to pay $0.99 to play it on their phone and actually save their progress.

As for video, we've already been shown that HTML 5 can do video just fine.

HTC Droid Incredible

The Incredible was not mentioned as being certified, but it does meet the minimum spec requirements that have been described. I believe the ongoing OTA does include flash player as part of the 2.2 build.

G2 will support flash

According to T-Mobile, G2 will have Flash 10.1 out of the box.
Good...
