    Hi MAO9, If I saw the correct tablet you have an android jelly bean and the google play store right? If so go in the play store and search * Puffin Web Browser* Free Version. It’s cloud server technology that has it’s own *flash* and the free version gives you 2 free weeks of flash to try it out. I use it on my 7″ android ( 3.2) but it’s the only browser that allows me to play the Hsn arcade. Also, since you have a higher android, check out *Ninesky Browser* . I. don’t have any experience with it, but it also might work for you. Good Luck!

    Just because a tablet doesn’t play flash natively doesn’t mean it isn’t a good tablet. I have had an iPad since the beginning and I don’t miss not having flash.

    I shop on line , so I use flash a lot to see the videos.
    That’s one reason that I’m returning this and would not buy an Ipad…

    You can play flash on android or Ipad. I have the Photon browser on the Ipad and there are multiple browsers that work on android. Works fine.

    DDAIR, I use Puffin Web browser on my android tablet to play the hsnarcade, but I installed Photon free version today just to see if it would work….it does. Did you see that the Photon upgrade charges Yearly for usage!!! I was reading the reviews and the yearly part was mentioned. Maybe you know and it works for you….just thought I’d mention it here for anyone to see. As far as I know the Puffin upgrade is unlimited flash, for the one time app install charge. It’s not perfect, but the cost is pretty low and it works for my needs ( android 3.2 with the latest adobe flash) When Hsn re-did their website, I had to go to the cloud browser to play games here…too many redirects even with adobe flash!! Enjoy your Ipad!

    Off subject-is this tab backlit for reading outside?

    I downloaded Flash from Adobe, and use the Dolphin browser to play Flash videos.
