Just a word to the wise, and perhaps you are already planning this, but 
please do make sure that you give patrons a secondary, and easily visible, 
way to navigate your site, if you decide to use Flash for navigation 
elements. Though few, there are those that disable Flash, or don't have it 
installed, and making something as important as site navigation available 
only via Flash-based links, may cause some people to ignore your site

If this was already part of your plan, then you can ignore my mini-rant.
