Pretty simple question, do you believe the NGP will have flash support for youtube or other games online that need flash? I don't think at first they will have it but as a latter add-on through a firmware update but I REALLY think they should have this for the NGP, what are your thoughts forum?

Seeing how the PsP and PS3 both have Flash, I'll say yes.

Offtopic but I hhope they relocate the speaker position because it looks like your hands would block them. Maybe not but I would rather have it running along the darker black part at the bottom.

Will probably have it but flash is not great for portables. It's very inefficient and drains batteries quickly.

The UI software known as Scaleform is supported by the NGP. Scaleform supports AS3 albiet (probably) a more uniformed AS3 but, it is AS3.

Even more so, the PSP allowed for Flash Player support and it was very underpowered. The odds are the NGP will come with some flash support. HTML5 is the next big step.

With the kind of power the PSP2 has, it'll be pure idiocy on Sony's part to not support Flash.

In the browser atleast because it takes up lots of battery power. So maybe they can have it running only when the browser is opened up.

Agreed. It's usually at least close to the latest version when it comes out on a new system.
