Notion Ink Adam & Flash Support – wait for it

source – engadget.com/ By Vladislav Savov

It was three months ago, in the midst of the most tablet-centric CES in recent memory, that we first laid our hands on Notion Ink’s impressive Adam prototype. Since then, we’ve been on the lookout for signs that the small Indian startup will actually deliver on the tablet’s lofty promises, and while that still seems to be on track, the latest update from the company’s founder is casting doubt on the originally planned June release date. Stressing the need to agree subsidization deals with telecoms for the 3G-equipped device, Rohan Shravan explains that “some want to give you Adam for Thanksgiving, some for summer holidays.” Add in his resolute commitment to only going ahead with the tablet when it’s fully capable of running Flash (seriously Adobe, the thing can do 1080p video, but Flash makes it wince?), and you have a significantly more elastic release window than we were originally led to believe. All the same, Rohan couldn’t leave us without some titillation, and he also promises “amazing freedom” on the email front and a number of content collaborations that he’s not yet allowed to announce. If you ask us, we just want something — anything — with a Pixel Qi display; we’ll make up our own content, just give us the hardware already.

[Thanks, Srikanth]
