This update is a minor version update from the earlier v1.0.5 update that was released a few days ago. The latest update version 1.0.5.2342 holds the new version of Adobe Flash Player in it.

BlackBerry PlayBook tablet’s owners should be checking for a software update notification on the BlackBerry PlayBook status ribbon, or else the users can head over to Menu –> Settings –> and check Software Updates for the latest update.
