Roughly nothing used Flash Lite, outside of a few weird embedded use cases like the Chumby. Web content was almost exclusively full-on Flash.

- CharlesW 6y ago> Roughly nothing used Flash Lite, outside of a few weird embedded use cases like the Chumby. I recall it a bit differently. By December 2006, Adobe claimed that Flash Lite had shipped on 220 million devices[1]. That was probably the apex, though — by 2010, it was all over. > Web content was almost exclusively full-on Flash. Yes, always IIRC. Flash Lite content wasn't delivered via the web.

- rescbr 6y agoI remember installing Opera and Flash Lite in my Windows Mobile smartphone and it being able to run Flash content. Was it a sluggish hand warmer? Sure, but then it was a 300 MHz TI OMAP (overclocked, of course!) and at most 128 MB of RAM, probably even less.
- CharlesW 6y agoInteresting! I stand corrected about it not working in mobile browsers, thank you.
