That's where the confusion will come from, Flex Builder will be less than 1000k, but that on it's own isn't Flex.
If there isn't a page already, Adobe should create a short, non-marketing speak page that people can be directed to explaining what the deal is. I know it's not out yet but there's already interest and disinterest based on the alpha and beta and pricing comments so far.

With the pressure Ajax is putting on things, Adober had better get the pricing figured out soon if Flex is ever to get decent developer mindshare. $15K was a joke for Flex1. Will it be dramatically different for Flex 2?

I don't know how folks can get excited about it without this information.
