Doesn't matter, I don't think USCC will have it on their Touch Pro's till maybe TP7!! I would guess that is one reason custom ROMs are so popular now. I still see that some TP2 have 6.1 on them. USCC has 6.5. But it also released the TP2 about a year after the first to arrive. And I think was the last carrier that added it to their inventory.

What do you guys think the problem with supporting flash? Would it overload the processor?

if you try to use flash on a computer with no graphics acceleration driver, you will notice it is extremely slow.
and considering mobile phones are just starting to hit the 1ghz standard, this is something that can't be overlooked.

Flash seems to require adequate graphics power to run properly, but that is no excuse for the iPad to not have it, it could be a license thing too, that is starting to become apparent. Its all about a bunch of high-up big wigs that are so high up on there asses that they want money and more money for something like this, and will go to extremely lengths to ensure they control the platform (ie: no OEM interfaces or cab installs, coincidence?)

although, Windows is really pushing Silverlight, they have it on the Xbox 360 as a flash alternative so that could be whats happening here for WinMo7

they did mention it won't be natively supported, but flash could still come, its not completely ruled out

See the announcement today for yourself,

Money, probably. Since if you load Skyfire you can watch flash videos. So these phones are capable of flash, but the makers aren't capable of reaching an agreement!!
