Thanks Dave - With that said, if I plan on doing "Remoting" (which could be construed as a broad term I guess), what would I require in order to do that? Of course in Flash, you just use the Remoting Classes, etc. and you are all set. You just have to make your choice between ColdFusion or .NET for the backend (or whatever else is out there).
Are there "built-in" advantages for the developer/clients if they use Flex 2.0 along with ColdFusion? I've always seen MM "put more icing on the cake" for people that wanted to use MM products across the board. As much as I wanted .NET, I moved all my code to ColdFusion - because Remoting was already bundled with it. I understand that I personally need to take time and research this all out, but the information you provide right now will help my radically understand how "things now work" with 2.0 - and help me arrive at a solution much quicker. I want to master Flex very badly - because it's simply amazing what it can do.

Things have changed quite a bit between Flex 1.x and Flex 2 (which is of course still in beta). With Flex 2, you can distribute Flex-generated SWFs however you like. There is no required server component for applications developed with just the Flex 2 compiler. There are optional server components, which will likely be quite useful, since most Flex 2 applications will probably fetch data from a server of some sort anyway, but they are not required by the Flex 2 compiler alone.
