Flash 10.1 gets announced today (see press release) adding support for a whole lot of devices including hardware accelerated Flash (via the GPU) on the nVidia ION, nVidia Tegra and Qualcomm Snapdragon platforms so we can finally play those damned HD YouTube videos among other slowdowns. 

Netbooks using Intel’s integrated graphics solutions will have to rely on Broadcom’s upcoming PCIe card. Not particularly sure about the GMA 4500MHD since it can handle 1080P video like the ION does. We knew all this already just the announcement is news.

Here are a clip showing a HP Mini 311 playing HD Flash video:

And one of a couple of videos that were taken down previously:
