Wanted: Flash player for <browser_of_choice>....

[Eric Schuele]

[Hoping this isn't too OT for the list]

So... now that www/linux-flashplugin* are gone,  I was hoping to get 
opinions on which alternative flashplayer(s) are reasonably good.  I use 
firefox and would prefer a plugin for it... but am generally interested 
in the state of any flash player.  I know there are a handful in ports, 
just wanted some opinions.

Could anyone please offer their opinion on
  - which alternative they are using
  - why
  - comment(s) on installation ease (or lack thereof)
  - is it a standalone or plugin

Thanks.
