Then, I think the price of Flex will go down... :) Just realize the Flex will ultimately support a much broader range of both back-end OS's/app servers and front end devices/platforms than Avalon will. There will be a significant amount of development using Avalon-based technologies for "behind-the-firewall" applications, for sure. Flex is a different beast, though. I also wouldn't be at all surprised to see a Flex client based on the Java plug-in someday. When looking at the Flex class models, it has a lot of similarities to Java rich client stuff - so who knows - maybe the Flash viewer someday becomes classes deployed on a JVM!

There have been clamours from the .Net developer fold for Macromedia to make flex as native to .NET platform as well as it is with the java platform. What do you think will happen when MS releases a platform that allow .NET developers use the same Visual Studio.NET(2005 Maybe) + zero licensing fees (it runs on Server 2003), to create applications that's puts the kind of rich programming components jus like flex/flash ?
