Adobe Flash Player 10.2 for Android, BlackBerry to bring increased efficiency

Adobe Flash Player 10.2 has brought some welcome efficiency gains on our desktops, and Adobe has now announced that its Android and BlackBerry plug-ins will get in on the action as well. In a press release, Adobe states that Flash Player 10.2 will be made available soon to Android 3.0 and BlackBerry tablet users (which pretty much means people who buy the PlayBook when it comes out).

There's some confusion of whether the Android news might indicate that Android 3.0 is coming to smaller screen devices -- but as Brad Linder points out at Liliputing it may just be a naming issue. Google has announced Android 2.4 is going to be available soon and that the update will bring certain bits of the Android 3.0 functionality with it. That could, of course, include the necessary under-the-hood tweaks required to support Flash 10.2.
