The next version of the Internet Tablet will help with internet browsing troubles, with both a large bump in processing power and Adobe increasing optimization for that processor type. However, it's just a matter of time before webpages become even more robust, using tools in ways they weren't really intended. Look at the videos describing why Google Chrome has a freaking JavaScript compiler.

If you feel likely taking a stab at improving Flash performance on the tablet, there is the open-source GNASH replacement. It's decently capable (can play YouTube videos at the least) and intended mainly for ARM platform.
