Adobe Flash

I've read a number of posts and articles on the web with all sorts of conflicting info about a flash player for the G1. If there is a DEV out there who could answer my questions that would be great.

1. I know you can only code in JAVA for the G1 so does that eliminate the possibility of writing a flash plugin for the browser?

2. What is being used to play YouTube videos? Are they being converted on the fly to play on the G1?

3. Is anyone out there working on this? Being able to use ORB to stream media to the G1 is a must for me, my old Mitac Mio 8380 did this like 6 years ago

I'm trying to figure out how to get ORB to work on the G1 as well!

There's another thread that lists streaming websites that actually work streaming vids to the G1, and from what i understand they on-the-fly convert vids from other sites (youtube etc) to whatever the G1 can play

Ive gone to the mycast orb website from my G1 and tried the different "STREAM" settings with no success, but someone did post that they supposedly got it to work on their G1

I'm pretty sure there is a Java API for flash.

It uses the youtube app to play the youtube videos or sends you to youtube mobile, I forgot which.
