I can complete a project in Flex in 50-75% of the time it took me in Flash. I was a Flex skeptic for a while and I hated it the first couple of weeks because you have to change how you approach stuff but now I love it (Flex 3 is a big improvement on 2). One thing Flash doesn't have error checking on the fly. In Flex Builder you'll know right away if you have an error, in Flash you have to compile first then get the warning.

You said that it was easier with flex/as3 than with flash/as2 -- wouldn't it be relatively the same to build it in flash/as3 ?
