If software shows up in the play store on our device and yet it does not work when installed, that is the software developers problem.
Our hardware on ICS is not the only one with this issue, i believe this to be a main reason google no longer supports flash.

iirc Adobe stopped supporting flash on android after 4.0.xxx not google. i think they actually stopped after Honeycomb.the ability to run flash was always one of androids claims to fame because apple wouldn't. As i have already said flash works fine on 4.0.4 except it seems on Kobo but the problem may lie in the newness of the arc. after doing some checking i should have no problem loading flash but only because it's already in my google account as an existing app from before august. again i would ask someone to sideload the flash link ending in 34 as this was the last update for flash on 4.0.4. please make sure you uninstall all previous flash installs beforehand.

i can see your point but at the end of the day one thread with many questions or many threads of one question all have the same requirement.
Answers.This thread started with the question, "where are all my Arc people",
can we ask where are all our Kobo people. This is a new product and as good as it appears to be there is surprisingly very little information available on it and this forum is the only real place of conversation about it. the people who do have it are trying to answer as best they can considering they are still learning it themselves.If the employees taking part at the moment are only able to as time permits due to other responsibilities then perhaps Kobo needs to look at having a dedicated team to monitor and respond to questions on various forums especially in the early adoption period.

the one thread i found on XDA which iirc is the biggest forum for mobile platforms.
i'm actually looking forward to what the future brings for the Arc as its owner Rakuten wll be looking to it to be the answer to Amazons Kindle HD.
