The image on the page to which you linked shows a version string beginning with "FL". That's Flash Lite.

See the table "Flash Lite versions and returned version values" in "Detecting the Flash Lite version on a device".

I'm not talking about the legal/moral implications - I'm not a fan of many things Apple does and how they do/did it, but whatever they did with webkit did not ruin the web as a whole, which is the premise here - that a 'dark, evil Flash' will be created and it will endanger the 'excellent' compatibility, multiplatform and performance track record of the original Flash player.

I really wonder, why isn't there more effort into making Gnash work properly?
The GNU people (and Linux people in general) have equivalent programs for almost everything except for Skype and Flash. It can't be THAT hard to make something that can run ActionScript properly, now can it? Especially if Adobe charges money for their Flash plugin..

Agreed, we need much more momentum thrown into GNASH, then maybe one day we can finally tell Adobe to piss off.

Yes, if you've installed Tweak Flash Version then that will change the displayed version number of the plugin (without actually changing the capabilities of the plugin).

It is the race you cannot win while damn ***** webmasters are requiring *NEW* version of flash being installed.

Adobe doesn't charge for Flash.

Same problem with Moonlight. As soon as it catches up to the latest features, Microsoft releases a new version of Silverlight that keeps us all out in the cold again.
