Thumbs up Adobe Flash is Now Available on iPad!

Not sure if anyone else saw this news, but OnLive just announced that their Desktop app for the iPad now allows for accelerated web browsing with Adobe Flash. Has anyone tried the OnLive app? I've heard mixed reviews.

This is still not an official release of Adobe Flash for the iPad or even iOS. Given that Adobe has given up on Flash for Android, I highly doubt that an official integration of Flash from Adobe and Apple will ever happen. Traditionally speaking, running services like Flash through a 3rd party service produce mixed results at best. OnLive isn't the first company to offer this type of service. I even think the Opera browser will take Flash content and transcode it to HTML5/h.264 for iPad viewing. However, results were pretty bad and were more than enough to push consumers away from it. Either way, I wouldn't really trust this app for solid results since all other implementations were pretty bad.
