Adobe Flash 10.1 for Android 2.2 was released to mobile partners today, with a final release for end-users to be available soon.
Adobe today announced the release of Adobe Flash 10.1 to mobile partners. The new Flash player is redesigned from the ground up with new performance and mobile specific features, and Flash 10.1 is the first player that brings the full Web across desktops and mobile devices. Check out a video demonstration of Adobe Flash 10.1 running on a Google Nexus One below:
Flash 10.1 brings optimized mobile experience
Flash 10.1 delivers new interaction methods with support for mobile-specific input models. Support for accelerometer allows users to view Flash content in landscape and portrait mode. With Smart Zooming, users can scale content to full screen mode delivering application-like experiences from a Web page. Performance optimization works with virtually all major mobile silicon and platform vendors.
The new Smart Rendering feature ensures that Flash content is running only when it becomes visible on the screen, further reducing CPU and battery consumption. With Sleep Mode, Flash Player automatically slows down when the device transitions into screen saver mode.
Advanced Out-of-Memory Management allows the player to effectively handle non-optimized content that consumes excessive resources, while automatic memory reduction decreases content usage of RAM by up to 50%.
Furthermore, Flash Player pauses automatically when events occur such as incoming phone calls or switching from the browser to other device functions. Once users switch back to the browser, Flash Player resumes where it paused.
Flash 10.1 final release coming to end-users soon
The Flash 10.1 plug-in will be available as a final release for smartphones and tablets once users are able to upgrade to Android 2.2. Devices supporting Android 2.2 and Flash Player 10.1 are expected to include the Dell Streak, Google Nexus One, HTC EVO 4G, HTC Desire, HTC Droid Incredible, Motorola Droid, Motorola Milestone, Samsung Captivate, Samsung Galaxy S and others.
Flash Player 10.1 was also released to mobile platform partners to be supported on devices powered by Android, BlackBerry, WebOS, future versions of Windows Phone, LiMo, MeeGo and Symbian OS, and is expected to be made available via over-the-air downloads and to be pre-installed on smartphones, tablets and other devices in the coming months.
Device and technology partners including ARM, Brightcove, Dell, Google, HTC, Intel, Microsoft, Motorola, NVIDIA, Qualcomm, RIM, Samsung, Texas Instruments and others announced more specifics around their support for Flash Player 10.1 today.
