Adobe releases patch for ‘critical’ Flash vulnerability
Last Updated on Friday, 11 June 2010 12:29 Written by Donald Melanson Friday, 11 June 2010 12:29
As promised , Adobe has now released an update to Flash that fixes the critical vulnerability discovered earlier this month that could allow your computer to be remotely hijacked. The update naturally covers Windows, Mac and Linux users (and even Solaris, for that matter), and is recommended for anyone running Flash Player 10.0.45.2 or earlier — the update will also, of course, bump you up to Flash 10.1 if you haven’t made the jump already. Adobe AIR users are also advised to upgrade to the latest version released today but, as reported earlier, Adobe Acrobat and Reader users will still have to wait a bit for their fix — while they’re also affected by the vulnerability, they won’t be getting an update until the end of the month. Update: Those not able (or willing) to upgrade to Flash 10.1 can also get a patched version of Flash Player 9 right here .

Android 2.2 will invite you to visit ‘Flash-enabled’ sites, rub Apple’s nose in it
Last Updated on Tuesday, 18 May 2010 01:07 Written by Vladislav Savov Tuesday, 18 May 2010 01:07
The battle for minds is well and truly on now, and if there was any doubt that Google and Adobe are cozying up together to take on Apple , let it now be extinguished. TechCrunch is reporting that the latest version of Android — you know, the one with the 450 percent performance improvement and buttery smooth Flash playback — will, upon updating, guide you to visit a selection of Flash-enabled websites. Countering Apple’s list of iPad-ready (aka Flash-free) websites, this is clearly intended as a showcase of the Adobe software’s capabilities. Ironically, a sizable number of the sites on the list are “mobile optimized,” meaning you won’t be hitting their full desktop versions (which doesn’t quite mesh with the idea of “the full web experience” ), but it’s still likely to cause some consternation over in Cupertino. All we’re wondering now is how much Adobe had to pony up to ensnare such a prominent promo position, but things like that don’t stay secret for long.

Android 2.2 ‘Froyo’ and Flash run like butter on Nexus One (video)

While Adobe evangelist Ryan Stewart wants us to focus on Flash 10.1 performance — admittedly impressive — running on his Nexus One, we can’t help but be distracted by the Android 2.2 “Froyo” build apparently supporting his device. Can you blame us

Flash Player ‘Gala’ brings hardware decoding support to Mac OS X

Even amidst all their fighting, it appears Apple and Adobe can manage to lay down arms and work together every once in a while: Apple just enabled low-level access to NVIDIA GeForce 9400M, 320M and GT 330M H.264 GPU hardware in Mac OS X 10.6.3, and Adobe’s followed up six days later with a new preview version of Flash Player code-named “Gala” that takes advantage of it.

Adobe CEO: Flash coming to Android, WebOS and BlackBerry ‘smartphones and tablets’ in 2H 2010
Last Updated on Sunday, 18 April 2010 04:07 Written by Vladislav Savov Sunday, 18 April 2010 04:07
This week Adobe released version 5 of its Creative Suite software compilation. CEO Shantanu Narayen has naturally hit the interview trail to promote his company’s wares, but the biggest news from him is actually a delay of sorts. We’d previously heard that Android , WebOS and BlackBerry versions of Flash 10.1 would be available in the first half of 2010, but Adobe’s chief now places delivery to those platforms in the second half of the year. At least consolation may be found in his teasing of new Flash-enabled tablets — most likely to be running Android or Chrome OS — which we’re told to expect to see within the same time frame. As to the question of Apple’s holdout from Flash nirvana, Narayen describes it as a business rather than technology decision, which “hurts consumers” and will ultimately be judged by people voting “for the experience that they want through their wallet.” Can’t really argue with that.
The rest is here:

Flash 10.1 might just not be a battery hog on Android
Last Updated on Wednesday, 24 February 2010 04:59 Written by Chris Ziegler Wednesday, 24 February 2010 04:59
Looking to fight an apparent outbreak of FUD, Adobe’s Flash evangelist Mark Doherty has posted some hard numbers (and accompanying video) on the effect Flash 10.1 has on the Nexus One — and put simply, it really doesn’t appear to have much effect at all. To back up his cause, Doherty plays a 17-minute embedded video in the full YouTube site then pops over to Android’s built-in battery use utility, which indicates that only 6 percent of the juice has gone to power the browser (of course, leaving the screen on to watch the video is another story altogether). He says that the company’s tests suggest they can get about three hours of H.264 playback over WiFi, which is theoretically enough to watch a movie or two; obviously the proof is in the pudding here, but this is a promising sign that these guys have taken battery optimization very, very seriously for this mobile push
