i got my hands on flex2 beta3 and dropdownFactory works fine.
heres a simple example for anyone whos interested

<mx:ComboBox id="cb" labelField="fname" dropdownWidth="{cb.width*2}">
          <mx:dataProvider>
                <mx:Object fname="one" lname="1"/>
            <mx:Object fname="two" lname="2"/>
            <mx:Object fname="three" lname="3"/>
            <mx:Object fname="four" lname="4"/>
            <mx:Object fname="five" lname="5"/>
          </mx:dataProvider>
          <mx:dropdownFactory>
                <mx:Component>
                      <mx:DataGrid showHeaders="false">
                            <mx:columns>
                                  <mx:Array>
                                        <mx:DataGridColumn
dataField="fname"/>
                                        <mx:DataGridColumn
dataField="lname"/>
                                  </mx:Array>
                            </mx:columns>
                      </mx:DataGrid>
                </mx:Component>
          </mx:dropdownFactory>
    </mx:ComboBox>
