Upgrade to CS5.5 or wait for CS6.0?

I currently have Flash Pro CS5.0. The free Flash Pro CS5.5 trial has ended. I don't feel like spending $120 for the upgrade and then upgrading again to Flash Pro CS6.0. I do need to use the latest AIR. What is the smartest way to handle this?

Thanks!

Adobe is now offering free upgrades to CS6 versions if you purchase CS5.5 versions between now and release. 

Order the current version of Adobe® Creative Suite® software and get CS6 at no additional cost. You will receive an email 10 days after the ship of Creative Suite 6 with redemption instructions and a promotional code.

If you're just taking advantage of the better performance, and not any new features, you should be able to build the app from the command line, using a CS5 swf.

Failing that, find another machine and a friend who wants to try CS5.5.
