This Flash MX book seems to be the first to market. The problem is that it has very little on the two new topics I am most interested in: components and video. It has a very small chapter on components, with one simple example, and nothing on working with video -- a new feature in Flash MX. Other than those two limitations, it does seem to be a good, basic reference book. It covers Flash tools and techniques, and also has a section on ActionScript.

I did the one component example.
