Despite the fact that Apple’s iPhone has been around quite a bit longer than Google's Android, it now appears that Android will be getting Adobe's Flash technology first.


Bsquare, a Bellvue Washington company which claims to be the premiere authorized distributor of Adobe Flash Player for embedded devices in North America, has announced their intentions of porting a version of the Adobe software onto the Android platform.


Interestingly enough, Bsquare’s customer in this endeavor is not Adobe, nor Google, but rather an unspecified third party carrier. While conjecture abounds as to the identity of this mystery carrier, most industry watchers agree that it is likely T-Mobile, since they are currently the only North American carrier to adopt the Android OS.


The news is welcome among the early adapters of high end smart phone technology, who have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of flash. Many content providers, most notably, YouTube, use Adobe Flash to stream video.
