Right now Android doesn't support flash.... But Adobe is working on Flash Player 10 which will run on Android..!!

Not very soon, AFAIK.

Also, unless Adobe is open-sourcing the Flash player, Flash playback will be limited to those device manufacturers that license the technology. Some will, some won't. I would not assume Flash playback is universal among all Android devices.
