  1. Flash was pretty shot on 4.0.1 for me (it played like it was super zoomed in); the 4.0.3 update got it generally usable. Installing the YouTube app made YouTube and integrated YouTube videos work pretty slick. (Launches the YouTube app for YouTube links and embedded videos.) Now if there was just a MIPS Netflix this would be fantastic…
