Motorola Mocks iPhone's Lack of Flash in New Droid Ad

The rich tradition of Droid ads poking fun at the iPhone is alive and well. After a series of DroidX ads mocking the iPhone 4's reception woes, Motorola has turned its attention to the iPhone's lack of Flash support . "Flash websites? There's a phone for that,” reads a new newspaper ad for the Droid 2. This, of course, is a pun on Apple's "there's an app for that" tag line. The popular tag line was also mocked by a Verizon ad last year: “If you wanna know why your 3G coverage works so well on Verizon Wireless – there’s a map for that!”

Hey MPC, before the guffawing over Android's awesome inclusion of Flash reaches orgasmic heights, how about a full on lab tested review of how well it works/performs. Because it fucking sucks and people need to know this.

Have you even tried flash on a newer Android?? My Droid X does flash easy, and smooth.

Umm... have you used the final release (not a beta) on modern hardware (Like a Nexus, EVO, or Galaxy S)? Because it's pretty smooth now, even for games and videos.

Update to the beta Froyo release and use flash. I did, and despite a few unfinished features, it works well.
