Can I use Flash or Java sites on Windows CE?

I have a netbook running Windows CE 5.0. Is it is a NET book, I thought it would be ideal for surfing the web, but so many sites require Java or Adobe Flash. I can not find a suitable download for either of these.

Update:

Windows CE 5.0 only - I can find the downloads for desktop versions of Windows.

    idk... try opera web browser and flash lite?

    your system is quite limited...

    when you buy a computer you must research its specs and learn its limitations, pros & cons of both the hardware and software. It's the same as with buying a car. Don't just buy it because it looks or sounds good. Microsoft Windows CE isn't a trimmed down XP or other desktop OS. WinCE is a completely different system all of its own and so it won't be compatible with most of the software for a desktop. since the devices WinCE are on are on are quite limited in in comparison to a desktop or notebook, or even some netbooks, I doubt there is even enough computing power in most of them to even use flash or java effectively or at all, however. I've seen it done before though... I forget what version it was though so you may or may not be able to do it. I don't think it was officially supported, I think it was some kind of community supported software... this was awhile ago too... idk, poke your head into a few tech forums, you might find what you're looking for.
