Flash on the tube is a very big deal. The container for nearly all internet media, Flash offers the greatest technical potential in terms of transforming the versatility of the set-top box.
Of course KickApps has the most spectacular drag-and-drop application for building nearly any kind of Flash container (no actionscript skill required, thank you very much), so these developments are nothing but good from my perspective.
