The only confusing part is if you need to use the messaging service, which you will need the flex server for.
Otherwise you don't need the flex server anymore, flex builder (which you wont even really need if you want to compile the apps in command line) just helps write and compiles the app then its deployed to the server like any other flash swf, we have discussed it on here several times....... ~Dave the disruptor~ I forgot what I was gunna put here, Will woulda stole it anyways! ---------------------------------------- From: "Adrian Lynch" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 09, 2006 3:18 PM To: CF-Talk <cf-talk@houseoffusion.com> Subject: RE: OT: ColdFusion and Flex That's where the confusion will come from, Flex Builder will be less than 1000k, but that on it's own isn't Flex. If there isn't a page already, Adobe should create a short, non-marketing speak page that people can be directed to explaining what the deal is. I know it's not out yet but there's already interest and disinterest based on the alpha and beta and pricing comments so far.

With the pressure Ajax is putting on things, Adober had better get the pricing figured out soon if Flex is ever to get decent developer mindshare. $15K was a joke for Flex1. Will it be dramatically different for Flex 2? Review of Flex 1 saying that MM isFlex expensive and that MM has a bad track record: http://www.digital-web.com/articles/macromedia_flex_and_flex_builder/ And another: http://www.lordalex.org/2004/12/macromedia-flex-is-it-really-flexible.php Anyone know what the pricing is going to be? I don't know how folks can get excited about it without this information.

With new pricing options, new deployment options, new back-end integration options, and a slew of new features, Flex 2 is going to change the way we build applications.
