I think it depends on your goal for reading the book. If you want to just copy sample code and run it then the book now serves less of a purpose. But I think the approaches that are talked about in the book still hold in Flex 2 so for general background it's still worthwhile.

I ask primarily because I am not able to get the sample app from Chapter 2 to run (or compile) and if the rest of the book has similar issues due to the changes to Flex and MXML (note: I don't see this as an issue with the authors or the book just a fact of life) I am not sure the point behind continuing to work through it. So are the rest of the samples in the book salvagable or has the language changed that much that I will run into similar issues through the rest of the book?
