Two big updates from Adobe are now ready for Android devices.
Last night, Adobe Blogger John Nack posted that Flash 10.1 Beta 3 is now available in the Android Market or from here if you are running Android 2.2 Froyo (which is likely only Nexus One users, a few other hackers out there, and maybe some Droid 2/x beta testers?).
Additionally, a new release of the Photoshop.com Mobile app just hit MORE

The United Kingdom is consistently the largest source of internet traffic on Akamai's network for World Cup related goodies -- including live game feeds, downloads, scores and follow-up stories.

Google updates Apps sharing capabilities to allow more, yet simplified sharing options.
As Microsoft unleashes its Office 2010 to consumers, Google continues its almost daily upgrades of its Apps suite. Today, a biggie for those who share their Docs inside and outside of their domain.

AT&T announces the Samsung Galaxy Captivate.
Spyshot of Samsung Captivate from Androidguys.com
Until this week, AT&T's Android effort seemed a little, shall we say, paltry? They offered one poorly-rated Android 1.5 device called the Backflip. It seemed like they were the 'iPhone network'.
This week, things are starting to change.

Samsung, being the MORE

Update: WOW. Verizon just changed their ad to something entirely different. Poor form:
Verizon is teasing some of the new Droid X specs on its website today. The device is expected to be formally announced next week at a joint Verizon-Motorola-Adobe-Google event.
If the above isn't just really poor marketing bait and switch, the Droid X MORE

Technical details are still scant, but Logitech has publicly hatched a name.
In a blogpost today, Logitech broke down the reasons it created a whole new brand for its GoogleTV appliance, rather than extending its popular Harmony brand of remotes or Squeezebox Internet radio players.
Logitech Revue does everything we're known for and more. So it couldn't just be the Harmony Box or Squeezebox TV or, even worse, the Logitech TV Hub MORE
