My initial message just asked for help downloading/installing the Flash Player.
I know people will say: just flash it. But I *really* don't want to screw it up. I flashed my N900 several times, but the N9 is a different animal--seems much harder and picky-er. And I can't even seem to get Navifirm to open...so stopped there. (I don't know Windows well, since I use only Macs and sometimes Ubuntu).
I should have just stuck with my N900.
