Think of Flex as the front end. XAML is basically the same thing with more limitations (only windows at the moment) and advantages (can build compiled desktop apps as well). I've got a small app designed which will use CF to create a sundown calendar based on a specific location for a year. Tiny, but exact to a few feet and can be used off line. CF gets the data from the naval observatory and uses it to built the XML.
