Adobe Flash Player 10 For Android Due In October
During a recent earnings call, Adobe CEO Shantanu Naraye revealed to investors that a beta version of Flash Player 10 for mobiles will be released in October of this year.
The new Flash player will support Android, Nokia Symbian, Palm Web OS, and Windows Mobile powered devices, and is expected to be unveiled at the Adobe MAX conference for developers that is scheduled to take place in October.
“We are bringing Flash Player 10 to smartphone class devices to enable the latest web browsing experience. Multiple partners have already received early version of this release and we expect to release a beta version for developers at our Max conference in October. Google’s Android, Nokia’s Symbian OS, Windows Mobile and the new Palm Web OS will be the first devices to support web browsing with the new Flash player…”
Adobe announced back in February that they planned to bring Flash 10 to the Android platform by the end of 2009.
Here's some footage from the Adobe MAX developer's conference taken last year that shows Adobe Flash 10 up and running on a T-Mobile G1 .

Nooooooo…. Flash needs to die. It can barely play full-screen on my core 2 duo, how exactly is it going to work on a phone. Besides we (almost) have HTML5 video now.

So when this comes out does this mean all we have to do is download it to our phone or is it going to come out in a new phone?
