Something odd I noticed... there is no mention of Director MX. 

For those of us familiar enough with Flash and Director, one of the
traditional reasons for choosing Director was the ability to include
dyna
mic
content, i.e. things like images not contained in the movie itself. 

Ummm... anyone from Macromedia care to comment on what is going on with
Flash's big brother?

I'm excited about Flash MX and CF MX. I'm the Flash evangelist over at
CF
Dev
and what I love the most about Flash is the possibilty of building forms
with advanced state management and validation capabilities in a fraction

of
the time it takes to do the same thing with other technologies.

These forms require less code, are cross-browser compatible and easily
scalable (clustered servers). They're object-oriented forms and the
probl
em
has been that it is very difficult to do the first time.

I'm guessing that Flash MX/CF MX will make this development much easier
a
nd
therefore strengthen CF.

And Flash and Neo..... Don't get me started!
