The number of ways you can refer to most items has increased in CS -- 
most classes are "y numeric index, by name, as a range of elements, 
before/after another element, satisfying a test, by ID". So you can use 
the following sorts of forms:

tell application "InDesign CS"
	tell document 1
		page item 2
		page item "Blah"
		page items 2 thru 4
		page item after text frame 1
		page item id 267
		page item 1 whose class is text frame
	end tell
end tell
