Adobe unleashed today beta of their Flash 10.1 for Android 2.2. It is supported on Froyo, gingerbread and Honeycomb pieces and promising serious faster performance.

This is still just a beta version and it is expected to have some bugs. But still, an increase in streaming performance is visible and it is well worth to try out the update.

Let us refresh your memory about the upgrades Flash player 10 (2). Play a YouTube video at 480 p is still hit-and-miss, while a 720 p clips is unwatchable. Even if you remember an update came out not long ago for Motorola Xoom, as Motorola claims required for the upcoming Flash 10 (2) update.

Adobe promises to remedy this with a more polished version of the update that is coming soon. Right now the hardware acceleration for Xoom actually is off and be activated with the next release.

Beta Update also promises to bring increased performance with dual-core Android devices running on versions 2.2 and 2.3. Not to mention a leap in performance on Android 3.0 for tablets. The latter should be able to stream seamlessly 720 p HD quality with the final version of the Flash 10 (2). This will seriously jeopardise the heat on the new iPad, 2, in our opinion.

Older core smartphones should get a performance increase, so do not think that you have provided if you have an earlier generation of droid.

There are no words on its availability as the update yet, but should hit the Android market beta a minute now. When it does, you should verify it, we know we will.

With the rapidly approaching starts MWC rumors about MeeGo-running Nokia N9 to intensify again. If the Finnish trust is one of the most hotly anticipated smartphones this year make their debut at the Congress in less than a month.

It will also be some serious hardware under the hood. Nokia N9 will obviously be the first Nokia smartphone to pack a 1.2 GHz CPU. Machine-translated source mentions something if there is an Intel Atom, but we cannot imagine a way to fill the good old x 86 Atom in a smarphone. Our guess is instead N9 is based on the Intel Moorestown platform, which is essentially a smartphone SoC (system-on-a-chip) with an Intel Atom core as its heart.

Next, Nokia N9 to equal 12 megapiexel camera as N8. Considering the qualities of large-sensor unit inside Nokia Symbian ^ 3 flagship, which is the only good news for all cameraphone lovers. At the top of the line smarphones has not done too much in the Department of camera recently, so perhaps the first true N9 all in a single device.

Final exciting Nokia N9 rumor is its LTE connectivity. Also source claims that this is not confirmed yet, you will need to include an extra pinch of salt.

There are less than four weeks to go until MWC kicks off so we can find about the rest of it is quite soon. This hope that entire list gets confirmed!
