Adobe Shows Preview of Flash Player 10.1 Beta on The Nexus One

With the Google Nexus One officially released today, the Adobe Developer Connection team is giving us a preview of what Adobe Flash Player 10.1 for mobile devices is going to look like. Though Flash Player 10.1 beta is just being demoed on the Nexus One with Android 2.1, I think we can get a sense of what the software will be like on other operating systems like BlackBerry, webOS, Windows Mobile, and Symbian.

Adobe Flash 10.1 For Mobile Coming to WebOS in First Half of 2010

Just like the recently reported Adobe’s message aimed to iPhone and iPod Touch owners, webOS users have been getting a similar, but definitely more encouraging message directed to them when visiting Adobe’s Flash Player website from their device. According to Adobe, “Flash Player 10.1 is coming to Palm webOS in the first half of 2010″ [see image above].

2010 will be the year a lot of smartphones will finally be able to play and support Flash videos. Now, the question is, will webOS based devices be the first to officially get this capability? We will all find out pretty soon.
