Flash coming to HDTV

Adobe has been focussing its efforts of late towards getting off the browser. While Flash is a ubiquitous include on just about every user's browser of choice, Adobe has been pushing its AIR platform of late, promoting the ability for Flash (and other typically online development processes) to be deployed in platform-agnostic desktop applications.
However we haven't seen much from Adobe when it comes to embedded devices.
If you're running XBMC for example, the skins that make that media centre the most attractive proposition available are fiendishly difficult to develop. If Flash was to become more amenable to embedded environments, the potential to raise the bar on interactive interfaces would make an evolutionary leap forward.
Now imagine it hooked up with MultiTouch capability and we're half way to the Minority Report dream....
