Great responses guys :), though i might disagree on certain points. i can think of some issues as in (some of them are addressed in flex 4)
1. its not like html, limited to what flash can do, for some people this is a dis advantage but in essence its not really a disadvantage, after all you intent to create web apps using flash and not web sites. 2. deep linking, history management, swf crawling are still hard to achieve in flex 3/flash but as i said flash is inherently different from technologies which have a dependency on states maintained at server and remember the browser today is designed thinking these aspects. 3. myths around the technology, they themselves at times tend to become disadvantages for the platform and technology, flex is relatively easy to learn and adopt, simple ways of deploying apps, browser independent etc etc., huge community, loads of free components, the least you can do is to explore stuff n search for them, afterall you get them free :) 4. Bad designe / architecture of the apps is to be blamed and not essentially the underlying technology, you can create an extreme lightweight application using flash and extemely bulky app also using flash that like takes minutes to load. 5. flex apps cant run on mobile but wait the new mobile flex sdk slider http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flex/mobile/ is here. 6. support issues in flex 3 and builder are now being improved, advanced css selectors, new spark component model, FXG are some of the enhacements.
