Yeah.  I know what you’re thinking?  Flash and Silverlight on a BlackBerry Web Browser?!? First, there was news that RIM was working on a browser that could render a website correctly beat the iPhone.  Today, BoyGenius has reported that RIM is “planning on integrating full Flash and Microsoft Silverlight support into their BlackBerry Web Browser.”

Don’t get too excited just yet.  RIM has to begin producing devices that can handle HSPA and LTE data speed — not to mention that wireless carriers  still have to get their data network infrastructure upgraded.  So, as exciting as it could be — it’s still going to be a long, painful wait.
