[1] Remember that OLPC lacks the excuse of needing the x86 only Flash plugin since they don't
ship it.

Indeed. It's not that Adobe is not amenable to porting the Flash plugin to non-x86
architectures; the Nokia N8x0 tablets are Linux/ARM-based and sports a proprietary Flash
plugin. Not the fastest thing on earth, but considering how buggy the Linux/x86 version is,
not bad.
