my take on this is that you shouldn't be scared to learn a new language, they come and go, your long experience in flash is also a long experience in programming gui's and games and apps. the fundamentals of all these things stay the same, no matter what the language. your experience is not wasted. i actually think it's pretty funny that some of the canvas examples that some people are really impressed with could have been done easily in flash 5 ;) so in some ways you will be ahead of the game a little bit too.
