i would like to help you but I'd be going through the same process as you so I think it would be better for you to do it - do a little research and reading and see what turns up - come back and share your findings

@Geoffh: Thanks.. I did some rearch on internet and was able to figure out how to visit flash websites.

Hey Crumpler, the Flash Player does not ship with Jelly Bean, BUT you can download the 4.49MB APK from the XDA Devs website, install it on your phone, and bob's your uncle! Here you go;

I installed it on my Z, and it works perfectly. After installing the Flash APK, I installed Firefox and the Ad Block extension for Firefox Mobile, to prevent ads and pop-ups.

The Flash Player APK will have no effect on Chrome - I repeat - Chrome will not play flash, regardless of whether you install this or not.

Worked best for me using Firefox with the Ad Block extension. Works on Dolphin, but Dolphin doesn't have a pop-up blocker.

I can now stream F1, soccer, rugby, whatever I want, perfectly, on my Xperia Z.

Makes you wonder why they left it out in the first place...!

Hey nikhil - you've linked to an older version from July 2012 - I've linked to the most recent version of the Flash Player APK from October 2012 - works perfectly.
