Switching over mid stride, simply for the sake of using AS3 is probably not
your best choice. That is unless you simply have an excess of money to play
with and can restart the project without the client going nuts.

Note that the only addition to Flash authoring 9 Alpha is the addition of
the AVM2. There are no other features included. Also note that the Help in
the Alpha version has not been updated either.

Daniel,

AS3 requires Flash Player 9.  Is that dependency ok for your application?

As of the latest FP penetration stats (Sept '06), FP9 is only at around
36%
(of the known universe).  Some have reported successfully deploying on
external facing sites with the express install very easily upgrading
anyone
who doesn't have FP9.

If you are ok with the FP9 dependency, I personally encourage you to
immediately migrate now into AS3, using the beta version of the Flash
Authoring  #9.

FP9 is substantially faster.  The changes between AS2 and AS3 are not
trivial.  If AS3 is in your future, and if you are ok with the FP9
dependency now, I would encourage you to not building any more legacy AS2
code.

My 2ยข

I am eager to hear other people's thoughts too :-)
