I wouldn't call this 'simple' but I do think your doubts are well
founded. Looking at this example, I don't see any real use of Flex.
You have what looks like some animated state changes and a few
navigation components - skipping Flex in this case might be easier.
I do small and large scale Flash dev, sometimes widgets, sometimes
database crunching translation tools. I only use Flex when I am
manipulating lots of data records.
BTW gang, don't forget, t's all ActionScript ;)

Thanks for the advice so far. If I follow the advice not to use the
<Application> tag, *and* if I also remove all the MXML and re-write
the app to use only ActionScript do you think I can get the size down
to under 200KB? I think Flex is a great technology, but if its not
the right tool for the job I will sadly have to go to Flash.
