it's a great idea. we are also looking into including 3D charts feature in the current web app we are working; on top of being able to skin them at run time based on some themes. Although it's not a priority. and before you do start, please do checkout 3d charts extension for flex at adobe.com. It's shareware tho and the author didnt include the source for the component. I also noticed that animation of the 3d charts cause almost 100% spike up in CPU usage (that's on a Pentium 4 3Ghz mchine with 800 Mhz FSB and 2 Gigs memory) - so i think CPU usage is one of the major things to consider coz who would even want to use a feature which will hug your system resource right? Needless to say, real time data updating sustains a minimum 50% CPU usage and even crashes the browser. But im sure the author is looking into that now. It's really a great piece of work.. and I think he is the guy you should first talk with. cheers!
