A few comments.

> * Binary transport

So is SOAP when you turn on GZIP compression in your container.  And I
would argue that binary transmission can be a bad thing too.  What if
a firewall used on a corporate environment has packet filtering turned
on.  Does that firewall have an AMF filter and did the firewall admin
know what it was?  I spent oodles of time working in CORBA.  IIOP is a
binary protocol and I cant tell you how often we bumped intot his
issue in a true distributed application.  We actually used to tunnel
the IIOP through HTTP a lot to avoid this.

> * 50% percent faster then SOAP or Webservice

Not true with GZIP turned on.

So does XML web services in Flex.
