When will a 64-bit version of Adobe Flash Player for Linux be available?

The Adobe Flash Player team is working on support for 64-bit platforms
as part of our ongoing commitment to the cross-platform compatibility of
Adobe Flash Player. We have not yet announced timing or release dates.

The above is a statement from;
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flash_Player
web site.  So, I have found my problem.  I have the 64-bit versions of
Firefox and SeaMonkey, and for whatever reason, Flash gives me limited
success with Opera.

I can use the 'youtube' site via my Debian install, but since that is an
older AMD 380 cpu with 512meg of ram, the resulting stream leaves a
Great deal to be desired.  Especially since sound doesn't work on that
system either.

So, there you have it.  64-bit is very nice, but can certainly be a
Royal PITA.  Time Should heal all wounds, at least in this case.
