Hmm... interesting...
Please have a look here: Adobe FAQ
Please open the Licensing section.
Here we are able to read:

Perhaps I don't understand it correct... but in this case. Nokia and Intel are Members of the Open Screen Project. Could maemo.org get a member, too and in this case get a license from Adobe for free to distribute Flash 10.1 for Maemo 5?
Since the updated TI page refers to Adobe for the question of redistribution of their flashplayer plugin, couldn't one of the now privileged testers of that plugin simply ask Adobe for permission to make it accessible on extras-devel? It's unsurprising that Nokia doesn't want to have it thrown at regular users, but they should not have any objections to that, and Adobe might also not be against having 10.1 tested and used on the N900.

Ah, young lawyer padawan, that's not how you read that. Note "with their devices". That does not necessarily imply internet distribution or firmware upgrades.
