Android grows from strength to strength, as for "less powerful" the top of the line android handsets are the most powerful handsets you can get, exceeding even the iphone 4. The galaxy will be able to run flash the second 2.2 hits for it, which is imminent.
They aren't targeting the vm player at mobiles, this is web based, it's for use on the desktop. In future there will be mobile VERSIONS of the VM player, it isn't going to be a case of using the desktop version on a mobile device, that will always be unsupported.

Sorry, I managed to miss your post a while back.
Android phones aren't the most powerful phones around although I must admit that they seem to have caught up. They were initially crappy phones though which took advantage of the lower processing power needed to run the o/s.
I notice also that the new Apple tablet clones (Dell, Samsung, etc) are running Android so I guess I may need to re-evaluate.
I don't know where you get your last comment from though. This is a quote from the FAQ section of the website and was up on day one of the beta release:-
How do I watch Virgin Media Player on My Mobile?
Can I watch Virgin Media Player on my mobile phone?
Yes! You can watch a selection of shows from Virgin TV with Virgin Media Player on your mobile. It's available to anyone on any network and customers with Virgin TV XL get extra perks! If you've got Virgin TV XL, Virgin Broadband and a mobile from Virgin Media you'll get 1 hour free every day!
