It is possible that the flash player version will be updated to version 10 when the 2nd release of the software comes out. The 2nd release of the software may come out next year, its either January or February.
At least, I'm taking this comment to mean the next release of the OS (like Harmattan).
The only other way to take it is.. Maemo 5 is getting an upgrade in both software codecs and browser next year?

What if the N900 "Flash 10.1" demo last year was really just flash 9.4 demo while talking about flash 10.1? The TBS.com website demoed works just the same on our N900 today...
I think we`ll get Flash 10.1 when the new N8 and the new N1000 are out with full flash 10.1....then we`ll get our update....typical NOKIA

Ok... I know I get heckled for not owning a Nokia N900; however for the life of me I cannot locate an e-mail that was in response to my question(s) about Flash.
It was, according to the person that did respond from Nokia - which, I doubt knew more than any of you in this forum, that Flash Player 10.1 was slated to come out around this time of the year.
So I held off. My contract with AT&T expires in 3 days, and I was hoping to purchase a N900, switch to T-Mobile (who just recently upped their coverage in my are) and save a few bucks.
It didn't happen. Adobe CS5 shipped, I'm in the middle of making the move to Flash Builder 4 (Flex 4) and Flash CS5, and despite being part of the Adobe CS5 beta tester group... I can't show my own experiments and work on my phone, tablet, or anything more portable than a laptop.
With my N810, I could show my Flex 3 and Flash CS3 and Flash CS4 work while using a smaller, pocket linux based wonder. It showed them that the projects were viable on even a smaller (high resolution though) screen.
And I'm still a Flex dev. It pays the bills. Lately, being a Linux/AIX admin has been my fallback, but it doesn't equate to why I wanted the N900. It supported my livelihood, Flash does, that is.
And to hear from a Nokia representative that I were to look forward - in a definite manner - to Flash player 10.1, to have seen it at Adobe MAX last October and for nothing to have surfaced as of yet... I might have to buy something that will support my livelihood as well as help get me away from AT&T.
The N900 was supposed to do that. No longer. And the answers from Nokia are either definitely wrong - as in the case in my e-mail experience - or definitely vague.
And dammit... I wanted to get away from this damn iPhone!
Sorry. Just felt like ranting about how it seems like all I want are definite answers so I can invest wisely and not get left behind or worse... not be able to support my livelihood.

Or you could wait and get the new Moto Droid Shadow coming soon to Verizon...but Verizon will be soon killing unlimited data for pay per gig. Fun.

As I said elsewhere on the forums, my source was Head of Maemo Operations, Mountain View. He came and gave a MeeGo presentation to a few of us in Vancouver, and I asked him specifically about Flash. He surprisingly gave a straight answer about it (most of my other questions were deflected) and said definitively that it wasn't coming for the N900.
I want you all to know that I would be ecstatic if he was wrong. It just doesn't seem very likely that he was wrong.
His other half-answer to me was correct. When I asked about PR 1.2, he said it would be out before the end of May. That seemed to be pretty accurate.

My very trust source at Adobe said today in personal email, and this is only thing I allowed to say.
It was actually Nokia that did the work to show the N900 with Flash
Player 10.1

Dear Mr. Thiago Souza,
Thank you for e-mailing the Nokia Care Contact Center. We are glad that you are interested in N900.
With regard to your inquiry about the site with a version10 flash player while the N900 has a 9.4 version, it will not be able to support the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC standard for video compression and AAC streaming media.
It is possible that the flash player version will be updated to version 10 when the 2nd release of the software comes out. The 2nd release of the software may come out next year, its either January or February.
Regarding the form, do you mean the form online? If you have a hard time accessing the online page we suggest that you contact our Sales department at 1-866-596-6542. Operating hours are from Monday-Friday, 9:00am-9:00 pm EST and Saturday from 10:00am-7:00pm EST.

Thank you very much for your email. Have a great day!
Kind regards,
Rosalie L.
