Adobe has released a stable build (GA) of Flash Player 10.2 on the Android Market, meant for Android 2.2 Froyo and Android 2.3 Gingerbread. It has as well as a beta build for and Android 3.0 Honeycomb devices.
Bringing video performance and battery life gains, the improvement the GA release brings is admittedly best seen on dual-core Froyo and Gingerbread devices, though also noticeable on single-core devices.

Adobe promises that it will then be able to make “720p playback to a really smooth, enjoyable level” on tablets, where currently, the 10.2 beta for Honeycomb is unable to make 480p watchable.
