I haven't bought Charles yet but used it for a longer time.  A big plus is that 
you can display the content depending on its type (eg. JSON and AMF as 
collapsable tree, but doesn't has a display mode for every type, I guess).  And 
it's browser independent so you can test with Safari and other clients (like 
native apps!), too.  You can record transferred data, stop recording, open new 
sessions while the old ones are still present.  If FF crashes or you navigate 
to a different page, Charles is still there and showing the recorded and opened 
sessions.

Firebug is nice for single request tracking (yes, you can let the requests be 
"sticky", but that's not the same and a bit ugly, even sometimes it doesn't 
show the content if there's some), CSS, Javascript and HTML, but if you need to 
debug more intensive and longer I would prefer something like Charles.

Thanks,
 Matthias
