Adobe Flash would be available for the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich by the end of 2011, according to Pocket-lint who has confirmed it with Adobe. The Samsung Galaxy Nexus that was announced last month with Android 4.0 doesn’t come with Flash player. This would let the Samsung Galaxy Nexus users and other users who receives the Android 4.0 in near future would get full web experience. But the Android 4.0 would be the last version of the Android that would come with Flash support. RIM has announced recently that they would continue to develop Flash Player for the BlackBerry PlayBook.

Adobe announced earlier this month that they would stop development of flash for mobile phones and tablets and concentrate on bringing new features for the Flash Player for desktop browsers. Adobe released an update for the Flash Player for Android recently that came with lots of bug fixes. They would continue to provide bug fixes in future but not add any new features.

They would continue to develop Adobe AIR for both the desktop and mobile phones that is used for creating feature rich mobile applications.

If you are big fan of Adobe Flash Player on your Android phone or BlackBerry Playbook  , bad news ! Adobe has announced that it is stopping development of Flash Player for mobile browsers and mobile devices. It will however provide critical bug fixes and security updates.  This info comes from ZDNET who got early access to this announcement from Adobe. Looks like Adobe is increasing investment in HTML5 and shying away from Flash player on the mobile browser.

Here is the statement from Adobe

Our future work with Flash on mobile devices will be focused on enabling Flash developers to package native apps with Adobe AIR for all the major app stores. We will no longer adapt Flash Player for mobile devices to new browser, OS version or device configurations. Some of our source code licensees may opt to continue working on and releasing their own implementations. We will continue to support the current Android and PlayBook configurations with critical bug fixes and security updates.

Most Android phones and tablets have been boasting about flash player functionality as a big feature over other products in the market. Last year, Steve Jobs  posted a long explanation about Why flash is banned on the iPhone   and now Adobe’s decision to abort development of flash player on mobile pretty much goes in line with Steve’s explanation. Bad news for device makers who have been betting on Flash .
