As for your sites saying that you need the latest version of flash--I've only had that happen when flash is turned off. I find flash works okay for youtube and certain information based shows because the sound is usually about perfect, but I believe there will always be some delay in the picture with a small device like this. I suspect the processor is just too slow. There is a fabulous application called Transmission which can download torrents beautifully if you want to watch movies. Just google Transmission and maemo and you should find it.
Cheers
