"What do use for the root element..." That depends on what your mxml component is going to do. To date, there is no "faceless" mxml component to extend for non-visible work. Box is ok, Canvas is probably the lightest weight component.
Do you have to instantiate with AS? You could declare the remoteobject in some existing mxml file, and then do all the real work in AS, like building the method parameters and invoking the send.

I seem to have got it going by doing an "init()" on "bob" I *think* this may be something to do with that my root MXML element is "<mx:Box>" What do use for the root element if you are writing a MXML file as a class?
