I have read that lightspark is getting pretty decent, although I have
not tried it myself in awhile.  It supposedly can/will fall back to
gnash for sites that have issues.

I too am looking forward to an adobe free experience, one way or
another, as it's really the only blob left on my systems, and I'm
dissatisfied with their  quality and attitude toward Linux solutions.
