Flash 10.1 Will Require Enhancements
Engadget reports that they received a statement from Adrian Ludwig in regards to Flash 10.1 only being available for devices that run on Android 2.1. According Ludwig, group product marketing manager for Flash:
Adobe, Google, and other members of the Open Screen Project are working together to make ensure the full Web experience can be delivered on largest possible number of devices. Support for full Flash Player 10.1 requires some enhancements to existing versions of Android. These enhancements are expected to be available as an upgrade to existing devices and for new devices starting in Q2 2010.
The fact that there will need to be some enhancements to the current version of Android hints at the fact that there will need to be some sort of upgrade but doesn’t say whether or not the upgrade will be available for every Android device. As we see and hear more about the upgrades and Flash for your Android device, you can be sure we will let you know all about it. I for one cannot wait to have Flash capabilities on my Droid and I’m sure you are excited for the update as well!
