Referring from:

The Nokia N900 was one of the first devices on while Flash 10.1 was demoed and this got a lot of people very excited. However a few months down the road its already available for a bunch of other devices, but the N900 has been out cold. However, there may be a silver lining after all.

A very interesting page appeared on the Texas Instruments website (the company behind the N900′s Cortex A8 processor) titled ‘Adobe Flash Plug-In – Evaluation and Demo for TI ARM CortexA8 Devices’. That was picked up by cfh11 on the TMO forum, following that Carsten was able to request a copy of the plugin from TI and has been testing it on the N900. As Andrew points out in the comments below, Carsten (Stskeeps) is one of the leading hackers in the Maemo community – and, indeed, sub-contracts to Nokia to work on the MeeGo adaptation for the N900! What were the results?

Is there anybody got this version of libflashplayer.so file and able to share with us.

Looks interesting, but I'm not going to try it until after someone else can give it a "clean" rating - Running unidentified binary code is dangerous.

The md5sum of it is "7b1b7d0ae1692aabc77309500e2ba7d4".

Edit:
Provided you trust this account, it's genuine!
YES!

Yep thats why asked if anyone was game ;-)

My N900 is very shiny and new, and I am not sufficiently expert enough to want to have to reflash, clean it up just yet ;-)

One word: Backupmenu. Back it up, try it, restore if you need. Simple, effective.

Robbiethe1st, I'm not going to try this one, but assuming I hypothetically tried the others ones: Every single leaked one so far has had the red bar, and limited working-ness with Flash elements. (I.E. Flash tends to crash when interacted with when using this plugin.)

The above link (meego experts) took it from Know Nokia - the Know Nokia one is the same one that leaked forever ago. It works, gives you a red bar in the top left of more flash elements, and may or may not be completely unstable depending on your luck - but most likely it'll do the crash/reload-when-you-interact-with-it bit.
