Originally, Firefox Mobile was not going to support binary plugins, just pure web code, but they had a change of heart and plan to add it in the next major release. Not sure whether the following is up to date -- it refers to Firefox 13 Aurora, which may be a beta by now:

Hi

jscher2000 is correct, also for the 10" tablets, we won't have flash support for at least one more release, so I would start looking for that in Beta maybe in August.

Thanks! Michelle

Flash is supported in Android 2 and 4 in mobile Firefox beta but not yet on Android 3.
