This was my main point in my original blog posting and what lead to my subsequent debate with Ryan on his blog. Flex 2 is not the "end all, be all" of RIA development and while Flex 2 does provide some really nice features, it is IMO, too heavy of a product for building RIA's for the Internet that most people use day to day, especially those on dialup. This is where technologies such as Javascript/Ajax/Interface/moo.fx et al. really shine.
