Check out the MapQuest Flash Maps API. It's homegrown and being continually improved. A lot of recent work has been spent on a mobile version to take advantage of the new features of Flash Builder 4.5.1.
unfortunately like bing & openstreet, mapQuest data outside the US isn't very good (though among the "other" three, bing is the "best" from this perspective). we do many projects out in the 'wilds' of SE asia & lately australia and the data quality/coverage is remarkably different. like night & day different in some areas. we could generally count on google's maps to be good enough and up till now, "always there".
we've spent a non-trivial amount of time building up tools to integrate geoServer/postGIS w/google. now going to have to re-do all of that & likely produce a worse product (because of lower quality spatial data). oops.
personally i feel particularly betrayed by this move. http://bit.ly/qOPop7 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API For Flash" group.
