To be clear, in Flex you will be 'consuming" a web service, not creating one.
Consuming a simple webservice in flex is pretty easy, the examples in the docs are pretty clear and there are other examples around (I have on on www.cflex.net <http://www.cflex.net/> ). One benefit of the generated code, or of using the same approach is that you wind up with strongly typed Value objects to work with in Flex. This is the most performant option, noticable if you have many complex item renderers displayed at any one time. If your UI is not so dense, then simple access of the returned XML works just fine.
