Skyfire v2.1 browser now out for Android devices
Skyfire on Wednesday announced an update to its Skyfire mobile web browser for Android devices that brings with it full Flash 10.1 support. The browser is said to be faster and more energy efficient as well as provide better video quality than native Flash 10.1. Since the launch of Skyfire v2.0 beta at the end of April, more than 500,000 Android users have downloaded the browser.
Skyfire automatically scans for Flash-based video and, if found, automatically converts it to HTML5 in the cloud and optimizes it for mobile devices. This is said to result in smoother play, faster load times and a 30 percent reduction in battery life consumption compared to native Flash 10.1.
Adobe deployed Flash 10.1 on Android 2.2, but users are said to be suffering from slow and choppy video delivery and excessive battery draw.

It looks to me
It looks to me like Skyfire does not in fact play video in the page itself, but actually opens a separate player.
