The only problem we have is that we're from Belgium (Europe),
and still can't buy Flex 2.0 yet. 

Our CEO has direct contact with Adobe in The Netherlands
though, so it should be here any day now.

Hi Flexcoders,

Subject line is fairly self-explanatory. I have seen a blog post or two
from people having trouble connecting with us on pricing or simply with
purchasing Flex Builder.

This is the first product from the former Macromedia to be launched at
Adobe and I am sure we have kinks in the system. I want to make
sure
we troubleshoot quickly. Please let us know.

I was able to purchase FlexBuilder with no trouble last 
Sunday.

I chose the download option, but I really would have 
preferred to also get the boxed version, too. Macromedia used to support this, I 
think. At least, I could get a printed manual.

FYI the boxed version is a DVD that comes
with a printed copy of the Getting Started manual but the other docs are not
printed.



You should be able to buy the boxed
version and then simply download the trial in the meantime. You can apply the
serial number that you get with the boxed version later.
