Ok, makes sense. I was confused by the fast that in .NET, you can instantiate an object via a webservice and have it be stateful, ie remoting.

Actually, that's exactly how things should be working. Web services are stateless, whether called from CF or .NET or whatever. CF components called directly using the CFOBJECT tag with the COMPONENT attribute are essentially instances of a class in memory, and have state. If you called the same component from CF as a web service, it would be stateless.
