I would say use flash - may take a bit of getting used to but it can be pretty damn powerful for animationy type things

I do have it but it baffled me the first time. I'll give it another go.

it's worth it - and a lot of the techniques are useful across animation as a whole. my advice would be: start with a very simple achievable goal for the first test, then work up from there. Plenty of tutes out there as well.
edit: ps, I'm not an animator but a programmer who has done some animation n' artwork n' shit... just FYI
