No Flash support from Adobe!?!?

HA! Got flash working.
As a side note, why all the hate for flash? There's nothing seriously flawed in it.

It is, and always has been, a security nightmare. All of the functionality of java applets with NONE of the safeguards...

Microsoft and Apple have both talked at great lengths about the security risks and issues of Flash pretty much since it took the forefront of interactive web content..

Personally, I'm glad to see it being deprecated, though I'll keep it installed for backwards compatibility sake until I feel I don't need it anymore... Let's go HTML5

Yes you can. You're just gonna have to use the youtube app though

I read somewhere, and I think it was Google themselves who said it, that the YouTube website has all of its videos in both flash and HTML5 format, and automatically chooses which to use based on what browser you're using. I am almost positive it was in one of the Google I/O keynotes but I could be wrong.

You're exactly right. YouTube uses HTML5 whenever possible and only falls back on Flash when it can't determine HTML5 compatibility from your user-agent string

I installed flash from an apk I found on the internet, then installed xscope from the play store ( important to do it in this order) and it seems to work fine so far, doesn't force close and videos are smooth.

This worked like buttah! I don't use flash a lot, but it's good to have for now. This seriously took 5 five minutes, tops. With Astro, you can download the flash right to the tablet. Thanks, man
