If you're comfortable with getting updates straight from Adobe rather
than the distribution, Adobe does host a yum repository of their own (to
which they pushed the reader v9.1 last night, in fact):

  rpm -ivh http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-i386-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
  rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux
  yum install AdobeReader_enu

They also keep the flash player for linux in there too, in which case 

  yum install flash_plugin

gets you that one.
