Lumia 900, Silverlight - Adobe

I have to say I am a little disappointed to find out the Lumia 900 doesn't support microsoft silverlight, and also adobe.

 

I was hoping to have Sky Go on my mobile phone, but am unable to do so.

 

Is there a way around this at all?

 

You would thinking coming from a windows phone it would at least support these two things *confused*

Unfortunately, You'd need a SkyGo app before you could view SkyGo TV on a windows phone and there is no such app in the marketplace at this time.  Perhaps you could contact SkyGo to find out what their plans are for windows phone.

Is Nokia thinking seriously to be competitive on the mobile market? How is it possible that up to now Lumia 900 doesn't support microsoft silverlight, and also adobe flash? When the apps will be available?
Thanks

I began to hate Flash back in the year 2000. Adobe said two years ago they will let flash die for mobile platforms. Not all developers realized that there will be soon an end for this. It's consequent not so support flash. There are more ways to make content for mobile devices available. There were also rumors that silverlight will be replaced.
Every smartphone screams like a drunken cow because flash video playback has such a massive battery drain.
