If recent reports are to be believed, RIM may be working towards bring their BlackBerry browser up to par with the competition. Said reports suggest that RIM will be implementing full Flash and Silverlight support for the BlackBerrry browser. Make note, that we said full Flash support and not Flash lite or anything similar.
Unfortunately, BGR says that the update probably won’t be available until next summer when RIM hopes to have their hands on higher data speends and more capable devices.

Microsoft’s Silverlight might soon be on the G1 and the iPhone. It seems like Microsoft isn’t wasting any time in its battle with Adobe when it comes to the company’s Flash technology competitor, Silverlight.
Microsoft is reportedly very interested in pushing Silverlight on Apple’s devices. But it’s well known that Apple ultimately controls what software runs on the iPhone - so good luck Microsoft. However, the story is quite different when it comes to the G1.
Google’s Android mobile operating system is open source and with the forthcoming Android Market, Google’s implementation of Apple’s App Store, things are going to be easier for Microsoft to release Silverlight for Android. The fundamental difference between Android Market and Apple’s App Store is that Google’s mobile apps store is open to all, making it easier for companies to release their software on the Android platform.
