The A100 is still using Honeycomb, so the videos play fine.
I hope that Amazon develops a video format that doesn't use Flash or (even better!) comes out with a video app. They would sell/rent many more movies if they did—and I would be very happy!

Which is rather strange. Amazon Instant Video, and the Hulu Website (not Hulu plus) work fine on my Touchpad running ICS 4.0.4. --- and they did on 4.0.3. I still use a lot of websites with flash and I am not having any problems with flash videos at all. So unless there is a way to get Flash running on 4.1 I would rather not upgrade and not get a device with the new version.
Perhaps Flash games won't work, I never tried those, but video runs great. Even when using a VPN service.
