Is there any word on when Adobe plans on updating the Flash IDE to support AIR 3?

Dave Gámez has an excellent post on how to update your Flash Professional

That article seems to be geared towards desktop use of Flash Player 11, and as this is a mobile forum I took it the question was asking about mobile use. You can do the AIR 3.0 overlay in order to publish Air 3 mobile apps, but I believe the question may have been more to do with being able to select captive runtime without having to use the command line.

There was an answer to that before, but it was a vague "future version, can't say when" answer.

It starts with setting up for Flash Player 11, but it then adds in the changes for AIR3. But you are right, any captive runtime usage is still command line only.
