The SWFs could be used even before CS3, so the new stuff you mention is: 1. Fireworks: create styled mxml .... well this may be helpful to some but I would prefer to do it all in css as styles take away a lot of flexibility. 2. Flash component kit: This seems to have good potential, I had noticed talk about this a little while back on mxna but just didn't have to explore... i will do that now. Thank you. Are there any other Flex specific features in CS3? Thank you for your comment Serge.

You can use Fireworks to create styled (not skinned) MXML. So In FW you can drag and drop Flex components, give them colors and export it to MXML. In Flash you can now make Flex components with the component kit that you can find on labs.adobe.com and you can off course also make SWF's again to use through CSS.
