While all of the tech chatter this month seems to focus on the latest Apple iPhone 3G S, one thing that the ubiquitous Apple smartphone cannot do is run Adobe Flash video – which means that (non-iPhone) smartphone owners will welcome the latest news that a new version of Flash 10 for phones will be available in October.

Adobe CEO Shantanu Naraye told investors this month that a beta version of Flash Player 10 for mobile will be out in October 2009, supporting Android, Nokia Symbian, Palm Web OS, and Windows Mobile devices.
