What in your opinion does 4 bring to the table for enterprise applications? Data wizards? I realize there isn't a better alternative but the Flex 4 transition is one I'm not looking forward to. I'd rather that things didn't crash and use 80% CPU than have better skinning. None of the useful controls are getting updated in Flex 4 and ADG 3rd party grid components are nowhere to be found. There has been a lot of talk to express opinions and let the Flex team know so I'm letting them know :) All I really ask for is that a few bright people remain dedicated to Flex 3 to keep fixing the bugs
