I don't really see a future for MXML in it's current form but the rest of the stack--mainly ActionScript 3 / the SVG drawing API, Video/Audio APIs are definitely worth looking at. Some of the highest paying web development gigs are in Flash programming, and it's a lot less painful than browser programming (which isn't saying much).

Yeha I will also shamefully confess. the audio/video is impressive. if you need a FOSS back end for the media storage, red5 works a treat.
