[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] FlashPlayer and Opera updates why don't nokia take it seriously? it is a web tablet!

[From: Simon Moore]

Having real issues with Opera crashing (just closes itself) 
particularly with Flash movies - which makes it a nightmare to 
develop serious web apps for it (doesn't support everything we need 
for good AJAX either!).

Not quite sure how to diagnose what causes the problem it seems 
random, even occurs on trivial web pages.

Do others have closing/crashing browser issues too?

It amazes me a web tablet can be released with such a dated buggy 
(proprietary) web browser, a dated flash player and no admitted plans 
to offer upgrades to either (as far as I can make out the browser and 
flash player are still the same from IT2005).

Which means the Nokia 770 is really no more than a toy and can't be 
used seriously by businesses wanting a cheap mobile tablet to access 
their corporate web applications (a rapidly expanding market, 
demonstrated by things like the blackberry).

Anyway in which I can help them fix these serious issues, I for one 
would be glad to help.

Regards
Simon
