i've been seriously considering using flashmaps for the last couple of
weeks. a client of ours really likes the transitions from
national-state-country levels as well as the drawing of the counties on the
state. i have to say that i really liked it, too. it's a slick looking map
component, no doubt about it.
i had a couple of conversations with a non-technical sales guy there and he
was explaining to me what they hand you off after purchasing the component,
i.e. flas for the points-of-interest icons, xml config files,
etc...basically how you can change the look and feel of the smaller icons.
they do not hand over the fla to the map component.
the examples they have in their showcase look real nice but basically once
you get to the county level there are buttons that launch getURL() actions
and such...and that's it. for my case, i wanted to seamlessly move from the
county level to a served map option from s/thing like yahoo, google or the
like. in that manner, i asked on more than one occassion to speak with one
of their developers about how extendible their api was and well, that was
two weeks ago and no one has gotten back to me. i called back three times.
hth, matt.

FYI, Yahoo Maps also provides maps in flash, and they have a
developer site, and free API and everything. I didn't look at
flashmaps much, but they may work for you.
