You only need LCDS if you are doing Flex.

Steve, here's a few things you ca do with it;

Connect it to your CF Gateways - flex messaging service, flex data service,
etc
- CF can 'push' data to Flex clients via LCDS (this is the only way to do
'push').
- Use CFCs to 'manage' data updates and syncronisation with multiple Flex
clients.

LCDS is the backend for Flex really, it's not much about CF.
LCDS organises, secures and integrates a whole bunch of services for
consumption in Flex, ie: Web Services, Java Objects, Messaging/queueing
(JMS, Actionscript, etc).

There is some overlap in what CF and LCDS provide.
For example CFCs can be called directly from Flex using the AMF protocol.
you get AMF and more in LCDS.

So, the 'lite' version you speak of is free, but limited to 10 connections
(or something like that).

And just to confuse it up a bit more - even if you don't install LCDS, there
are embedded parts of it in CF anyways (as far as i can tell)
