The desktop might have Flash Player 10.2 for quite some time, but it’s still missing in the mobile platform. Now, Adobe comes along and announces Flash Player 10.3, and it’s coming to both desktop and mobile devices “soon”.

Improvements in the latest iteration include some acoustic hocus pocus for better internet telephony, new video analytics APIs, privacy controls integrated into browser settings in Firefox 4 and IE8 (Chrome and Safari to follow), and native control panel integration with both Mac’s System Preferences and Windows’ Control Panel. Beta testing ends in Q2 2011 for the desktop and a mobile release should follow swiftly thereafter.

And while we’re still whining that the mobile platform is missing out on Flash Player 10.2, let’s not forget that some specific operating system doesn’t even have Flash Player to begin with.
