EE Times reports Qualcomm showed off an ARM-based netbook with full support for Adobe Flash 10:

"One of the things that some of our competitors have been saying is that you couldn't get the full Internet experience on ARM, because we didn't have Flash [video]. That's wrong because we have flash," Jacobs said. "We've worked with Abobe. This has a full Flash 10 implementation on it — the first Flash 10 implementation on ARM. It also runs in HD resolution despite the claims of some of our competitors that we didn't support HD."

Jacobs then provided a commentary to a YouTube video running on the Lenovo machine before adding. "This is also going to be launched on AT&T so it already has a carrier that is backing it."
