http://blogs.adobe.com/flashplatform/2011/02/update-for-fp-10-2-on-tabs.htmlAdobe will offer Flash Player 10.2 pre-installed on some tablets and as an
OTA download on others within a few weeks of Android 3 (Honeycomb) devices
becoming available, the first of which is expected to be the Motorola Xoom.
We are excited about the progress we've made optimizing Flash for tablets,
alongside partners including Motorola, and expect our momentum to continue.
As we announced last week, over 20 million smartphones were
shipped or upgraded with Flash Player in 2010 and over 150,000 consumers on the
Android Market are rating it 4.5 out of 5 stars. We have raised our estimates
for 2011 and expect to see Flash installed on over 132 million devices by the
end of this year. Consumers are clearly asking for Flash support on tablet
devices and the good news is that they won't have to wait long. We are aware of
over 50 tablets that will ship in 2011 supporting a full web experience
(including Flash support) and Xoom users will be among the first to enjoy this
benefit.
