You should probably do a search on the forum archives to make sure, but I'm almost certain Matt Chotin or someone else from Adobe recently suggested that if you install the Flex Builder 3 beta now, you really don't have to worry about it timing out (90 days) before the real product is available. In which case, you could just go for the beta now and wait for the release to purchase.
Actually, I did the search. Here's what Matt said on Dec. 14 (note the last line): FB3 will be released in early 2008. Usually the absolutely free upgrade is if you purchase within 30 days of the release. In this case I think you can expect that the upgrade price will be very very similar to the maintenance price. I would not be overly concerned about the beta 3 trial expiring.
