Flex - Some good source for practical examples

Question

Since I need to start working on flex within a week for my firm, I started learning flex.
I did watch some of the starting videos from Adobe (here).

But, I found those videos too slow for my learning process and they don't seem to provide with much practical application programs to try out with.

Though, I will continue with those videos over the week, can anyone suggest some good website/online resource that could provide me with some practical examples, that would easy to work out on Flex Builder. It would also ease my learning process.

Thanks.
