AS3 is a totally different world. Well, not totally, but you are targeting a different VM. Lots of articles on Adobe.com on migrating to AS3. It's worth learning and transitioning to. To say it's "disheartening" to find out technology changes and things are not compatible, is, no disrespect, to not understand the nature and history of technology. Adobe did a great thing by completely overhauling Actionscript. AS3 in FP9 is so fricking fast. Check out this Flex app which is an attempt to recreate Photoshop on a web page - the performance is amazing and would have been difficult to acheive with AS 1 or 2.

AS changes in 3.0, totally worth it for the few it will tick off.
