In my personal opinion it would be a waste of time to solely work in AS 3.0. Because it is in Alpha. I hope everyone understands what and Alpha is. Alpha releases are builds that are not complete. Meaning that not all features have been implemented. Beta is where you have all major features implemented but have a any number of bugs, performance, etc. to correct. As of yet I have not seen any communication from Macromedia that indicates that the Framework is rock solid and that only Flex Builder is the Alpha product. With that said, I return to my previous statement of not jumping on the AS 3.0 wagon fully but DO keep an eye on it (this means build little projects to keep up with the new work flow and framework).
