Adobe Flash for Android...It's been quite a long journey, and there is still more to go, but we are definitively one step closer to the finish, now that Adobe has announced the availability of their Adobe Flash Player 10.1 to "mobile platform partners" as of today. Who are those partners though? Phandroid writes that those partners "include CNET, HBO, Justin.TV, Nickelodeon, USA Network, Sony, Warner Brothers, and Viacom only to name a few."
TalkAndroid mentions that other partners include Android, BlackBerry, webOS, future versions of Windows Phone, LiMo, MeeGo and Symbian OS" which means that we are now closer to seeing a release for the public.
Adobe states in their press release that Adobe Flash Player 10.1 "will be available as a final production
release for smartphones and tablets once users are able to upgrade to Android 2.2 “Froyo.”"
AndroidCentral writes that "Adobe does mention a slew of devices that it expects to get Froyo, including the Dell Streak, Google Nexus One, HTC Evo, HTC Desire, HTC Incredible, DROID by Motorola, Motorola Milestone and Samsung Galaxy S."
Androinica notes that:
Finally, those that are or will be running Android 2.2 will not have to search very hard for Flash Player 10.1 because its said that it will come as an over-the-air download with an update notification that may show up a few ways including by content triggered downloads, system software updates or on-device app catalogs. Basically it seems as if your device is capable you will be notified one way or another.
