I think a lot of the reason we haven't "seen much"
Flex/Flash work out there was the high cost for Flex (1). Flex 2's pricing model
should help there quite a bit. There are still a lot of people under the
impression that "flex will cost". It's not quite true. If you want to, you will
be able to do most everything you could want entirely free in the final Flex 2
release. Ben did a good job clarifying the frequent misconceptions in a blog
entry yesterday:
Free Flex, Get Your Hot Fresh FREE
Flex!
That
said, I'm sure M@ would also agree that there may be instances where Flash/Flex
still won't cut it for interfaces, and there we may see Ajax (or .NET's Atlas)
helping to show another path to RIAs. Either way, it's interesting times ahead I
think.

Subject: [cfaussie] Re: [OT] Flex2 Beta 3
still am yet to run accross a flash app that I think is better then an html app to be honest.
back in 2001 I thought flash was gunna be the be all and end all of everything but from my perspectice (someone who doesn't follow flash) it hasn't done anything in the last 5 years except for flash video of which I actually love.
Now I'm sure it has done heaps... But.. there is nothing that has caught my eye and made me think "w0w now its finally the must use"
although I'm sure there would be a lot of really good intranet apps out there done in flex.
