actionscript-3

Hi Right now Flexbuilder 3 is my editor of choice for all as3, xml ,js editing.

I'm not 100% convinced that I need to upgrade to FlashBuilder. Also early betas seemed a bit sluggish compared to Flexbuilder3.

Does anyone who has made the upgrade have any convincing reasons? Was it worth it?

Flash Builder missing fundamental things
