Just a quick note to let you know that I've released a new ComboBox component that implements option selection as you type, unlike the default ComboBox it does it on part words or full words. This is handy for quickly jumping to a known option in a large list of options within the ComboBox.
I just created it as I had gotten so used to that kind of functionality within drop down boxes (in Firefox especially) that I really missed it within Flex. If you're interested an example, description and the download can be found here: http://www.defusion.org.uk/code/foxycombobox-for-flex/
