Sure, you can use a SolidColor fill:

<s:Ellipse id="ellipse"
           width="300" height="200"
           horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0">
    <s:fill>
        <s:SolidColor color="red" alpha="0.33" />
    </s:fill>
</s:Ellipse>

Or a LinearGradient fill:

<s:Ellipse id="ellipse"
           width="300" height="200"
           horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0">
    <s:fill>
        <s:LinearGradient rotation="45">
            <s:entries>
                <s:GradientEntry color="red" alpha="0.33" />
                <s:GradientEntry color="purple" alpha="0.66" />
            </s:entries>
        </s:LinearGradient>
    </s:fill>
</s:Ellipse>

Or a RadialGradient fill:

<s:Ellipse id="ellipse"
           width="300" height="200"
           horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0">
    <s:fill>
        <s:RadialGradient rotation="45">
            <s:entries>
                <s:GradientEntry color="red" alpha="0.33" />
                <s:GradientEntry color="yellow" alpha="0.5" />
                <s:GradientEntry color="purple" alpha="0.66" />
            </s:entries>
        </s:RadialGradient>
    </s:fill>
</s:Ellipse>

Or a BitmapFill fill:

<s:Ellipse id="ellipse"
        width="300" height="200"
        horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0">
    <s:fill>
        <s:BitmapFill source="@Embed('assets/pattern_143.gif" fillMode="repeat" />
    </s:fill>
</s:Ellipse>

The 2009 namespace will also contain both the Gumbo (Fx*) components and the older Halo components. Personally, I'm not sure if <em>all</em> the Halo components will be migrated to Gumbo components right away though. The good news is that you can use both Gumbo and Halo based components in the same application. Likewise, you can continue to use the Halo Application container or you can use the Gumbo FxApplication container in your Flex applications. Gumbo is still somewhat "beta", and isn't expected to be final until the second half of 2009 (according to the <a href="http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Gumbo" rel="nofollow">Gumbo page on opensource.adobe.com</a>). But if you want to start developing applications with Gumbo, please do! We appreciate any bugs you find and file in the bug base (<a href="http://bugs.adobe.com/flex/" rel="nofollow">bugs.adobe.com/flex/</a>). Regards, Peter Raul Riera,

I am wondering if I should start coding my app in Gumbo and then make the changes once is final. Suggestions? Are this Fx going to replace the mx: namespace?
