De wonderen zijn de wereld nog niet uit. As we all know, Flash is a terrible resource hog on just about any device. Even my quad-core desktop space age computer sees spikes in processor usage whenever Flash rears it ugly head, let alone my poor Intel Atom-based devices. Well, it seems Adobe finally pulled its head out of its behind, and has committed itself to enabling proper Flash performance on Atom-base devices. The catch? You need a Broadcom Media Accelerator, or an NVIDIA graphics chip.

Flash is slowly following the path of macromedia shockwave path.
Actually, you don't need flash (or Silverlight for that matter) in order to "display a lot of stuff over the video".
Ordinary web standards (those being HTML5 video tag, Javascript/CSS3, SVG and animated PNG) can do all that.

Strangely enough, IE supports none of this. You will need Firefox 3.5 to see the full effects.
If you have a pre-release version of Firefox 3.5, the demos are here:
