This one is merely for fun as I have no knowledge of which mobile OS will be the first to get Flash Player 10. My gut tells me it is probably Android (especially since Adobe had a very early demo on a G1 at MAX last year). It would also certainly get a lot of press for Palm's pre running webOS if they were the first to offer the latest version of the Flash Player on their new devise.
So, where would you place your money if you were a betting person? Please be sure to leave some comments as well as I love speculation.
Are you someone in the know who has this information? Go ahead leave a comment, I am sure no one will tell. :-)

There are previews of Windows Mobile running Flash (Youtube) in the browser on this video: http://videos.visitmix.com/MIX09/T61F
I don't know what version of Flash, but I can't wait to get my hands on it.
My bet is on Google to see the business potential and by the end of the summer it looks like the G2 will be available from all major US carriers. Microsoft could be but they seem a bit slow in the uptake these days trying to decide if they want silverlight of flash, and now that I own an iTouch, I wish Apple would.
Thanks to @SteveHoward999 on Twitter for pointing out this post:

I'm guessing Android as well as it would be a feature that the iPhone does not have and may not have in the near future.
Has there been talk of having Silverlight on mobile platforms? It would seem that the mobile platform would need .Net as well to support Silverlight. Windows Mobile platforms are obvious but Android or iPhone?
I am guessing most of all smart phone mobile will bring Flash player10. But very sure information is that G2 is bringing Flash Player 10 next month.

Any random developer built Flash Installer for Iphone, fixed crash, QA test and under approval from Apple. We might need to keep an eye on him for possibility of flash on Iphone.

Hi,
At MAX last year we showed Flash Player 10 running on Android, Windows Mobile 6.1 and Symbian S60 platforms. The formal delivery to our OEM partners will happen at the end of the 2009, with devices starting to creep out in early 2010.
At the same time Microsoft will be delivering Flash Lite 3.1 with their Windows Mobile 6.5 platform to enable seamless web browsing on their devices. The conference link above was Microsoft showing just how cool it is to have Flash as part of their browser!
We're also building Flash Player for the iPhone, however we need Apple's help to integrate this completely.
I did vote for the first device, but obviously I'm totally cheating. Stay tuned to my blog for rolling info..
