Am I the only one on this list who (still) uses the Flash IDE (Flash 8 Pro) and hasn't migrated to AS 3.0 or any version of Flex?
I am interested in both but do not want to fork over any more $$ to ex-Macromedia. (I feel cheated by having paid for many versions of the educational versions because they don't upgrade then many versions of full software because the Macromedia packages I had didn't have an upgrade path to the newer bundled Adobe products such as Creative Suite 2 or the Adobe Video Bundle.) What is the minimum cost to start using Flex? (I mean in a production version. I do not want to start using a beta or a trial of something and then have it break and be stuck.) What are the ongoing costs to deploy Flex apps? I have looked at the website but found it confusing and they keep changing pricing... I want a rough idea of what it actually costs developers to switch to Flex and deploy the apps etc. What if anything will I lose by switching to Flex? I use the Flash IDE a lot for design now but most projects have extensive coding as well. Can I use Flex for the code and still use the IDE for design? _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
