I would love one. I never go to this site on my iTouch because it takes forever to load, plus I have to zoom in to read anything and end up clicking on something half the time I try to zoom.

Encoding the videos not using flash would be a good way to start
Thats just what apple WANTS you to do :p

OT:

Yeah, I don't think it would take TOO much effort to make a mobile version, if I had the iphone with the dev kit, I suppose I could have made an app for that :p.

EDIT: Isn't there an app that lets you use flash?
People have tried to use the jailbreak to get flash on, but it currently only works with non-video content - animations, games etc. The dev kit doesn't let you import third party stuff, either into the actual SDK or onto a device, so the ban's been implemented pretty effectively. As much as I dislike the motives behind why it's banned, the reports of Flash on Android make it seem pretty crap, so...

What's wrong with flash on Android? It works perfectly.

Can't you go to the escapist on your mobile, I can.
Did you even read the OP? I can go to this site on my phone just fine, it just takes forever to load and is hard to use, a mobile version would make it much faster and easier.

Flash only runs well on Desire/EVO/Galaxy S and maybe a Nexus.

There are lots of lower-end phones who can easily support video encoding, but flash's performance even on my dual core laptop is lack lustre at times.

First off, you messed up that quoting pretty bad, secondly, it works flawlessly on my HTC Incredible.

Yeah, it screwed up and I was too lazy to fix it right :p

Also: The Incredible has a Snapdragon, and 512MB of RAM. That's high end.

Hell, that's higher than the Moto Droid.
