AppleInsider | Adobe releases Flash Player 10.1 for Mac
Adobe has declared its 10.1 release of Flash Player a Golden Master and is now serving it as the default Flash Player download after more than six months of beta testing.

MacDailyNews - Adobe releases Flash Player version 10.1 without Mac OS X hardware acceleration

A gold master for OS X without hardware acceleration for OS X. That's not a good picture for flash on OS X at all.
