Yet another announcement coming out of last week’s Adobe MAX: Adobe and Qualcomm Bring Full Flash Player to Next-Generation Mobile Devices.
According to the article, Qualcomm (a longtime Open Screen partner) is working with Adobe to optimize and increase performance for Flash Player 10.1 for Qualcomm’s chipsets targeted at smartphones and smartbooks.
Looks like Toshiba will feature a device with Flash Player 10.1 which has the SnapDragon chipset (which has an integrated high-performance graphics core) for accelerated video and graphics while conserving battery life and resource utilization).
Some quotes from this article:
“Adobe has a longstanding relationship with Qualcomm as one of the first participants in the Open Screen Project,” said David Wadhwani, vice president and general manager, Platform Business Unit at Adobe. “With Adobe Flash technology being the No. 1 platform for video delivery online, Qualcomm’s chipset portfolio, which includes the innovative Snapdragon platform, will help bring the latest, most innovative Web experiences created using the Flash Platform to next-generation smartphones and smartbooks.”“Qualcomm is continually looking to enable richer multimedia experiences on mobile devices, and the Adobe Flash Platform technologies will be a significant part of that effort moving forward,” said Rob Chandhok, vice president of software strategy for Qualcomm CDMA Technologies. “As mobile devices increasingly become a primary method of accessing the Internet, our collaboration with Adobe provides our device manufacturing customers with the ability to deliver even more compelling and full-featured products to the market.”
