Archos 28 Flash Problems

[nomadicated]

Hi

I recently purchased an Archos 28 to play back Flash videos, etc, but have had no luck in getting Flash to work. I updated the firmware from the Archos website and the 28 is now running Android 2.2.1 with Board Version A28-V3.

Hi, thanks for all your suggestions. I have tried all the browsers that have been recommended and also attempted to downgrade to Flash 10.1, no luck on all accounts. The Flash video begins to load before each of the Flash supported browsers crash suddenly. Oh well, it's a real shame I'll wait and see if a fix becomes available in the future.
