Bryan, I think you and I are SOL unless we can find someone who is successfully using the Gateway as a proxy for web services on a machine that has been updated with U3.
I'm gonna try the "other" list to see if anyone is running this on their site with U3.

Are you saying that Bryan should be using Ben's Gateway (i.e., http://www.forta.com/flashservices/gateway or wherever it is...)?
