The best thing that Nokia can do now after iPhone 4 Wi-Fi/3G reception debacle is to announce Flash 10.1 support for N900.

I believe Palm Pre Plus will als be getting it and I think it has similar specs as the N900.

This is Nokia just being douches, and Adobe being pussies. If the OS is open source, Flash should be available to it regardless of Manufacturer input. It's not like Microsoft had a say in Flash development for which versions of Explorer can be supported ... Adobe has the final say on this. Same can be said for Linux x86 platform and mac OSX. Adobe is pissing way customers by playing along with Nokia's lame tactics. Anyways isn't next versions of Chrome/ Chromium coming pre-installed with Flash ... could we not get Flash through the Chromium browser then?

Brings me to my original point. Flash is Browser dependent, Adobe should just begin having a list of supported browsers and leave the OS Manufacturer end out of the equation as much as possible.

It is not browser dependent. Crappy and outdated as it is, the NPAPI defines how a plugin (in this case Flash) interacts with it’s environment. As already said, if, by any chance, Adobe simply released a public ARM Linux edition of Flash 10.1, there would be no need for Nokia to do anything.

Why did they have this press release in October if they weren't going to bring full support. http://www.arm.com/about/newsroom/26062.php

Has anyone gotten another browser plugin to work like that though in MicroB or another browser in Extras? i.e. Sun Java Embedded 6 or even the ARM Flash 9 NPAPI plugin (if one exists that's not originally from Maemo. Maybe there is one in Debian for ARM, or someone can just try Gnash)

NPAPI plugins work fine in webkit based browsers, in Fennec, but even without browsers, for example I've got half a dozen different ways of loading Flash plugins in FlashLauncher. AFAIK Debian ARM has no Adobe Flash (AFAIK the only ARM Linux distro that has it is actually Maemo, not counting the announced-but-unreleased versions for Palm).
