Flash will continue to work with the Android 4.0 browser.... just that no new features will be added beyond 11.1... but bugs and security fixes will continue to be provided...

From 9 months ago...Eric Schmidt Claims Almost All Mobile Apps Will Be Built With HTML5
Eric Schmidt Claims Almost All Mobile Apps Will Be Built With HTML5
by Rob Jackson on February 15th, 2011 at 12:44 pm
We’ve heard the discussion about HTML eventually taking over the universe but I think this may be the first time I’ve heard Eric Schmidt say it directly and so succinctly. I’d have to double-check word for word, but the quote I heard was:

“HTML 5 is the way almost all applications will be built, including for phones.”

That kind of blows my mind. If HTML 5 takes over then is Android really that big of an advantage for Google? Won’t all the other platforms be able to leverage HTML 5 to create competitors more on par with Android? Google’s big business is advertising so… do they even care?

I don't think it will effect Android tablet users. Flash will continue to suck horrendously on those. It will make them look like jackasses advertising sucky Flash as an Android tablet advantage though.
