Hi,
I guess you missed the news. :)
The price model changes completely from 1.X to 2.0. The
product is affordable for everyone now.
The Flex Framework and compiler will be free. In
other words, if you want to use your own text editor for coding, you can now
build and deploy Flex applications for *FREE*.
The Flex Builder tool will be less than $1000. You
will be able to build and deploy Flex applications with this. You are not
required to ever buy the server. You can load data into your Flex app with
XML over XTTP or our XML or Binary Socket and no server is
required.
The Flex Data Services will have a low end limited version
for Free, and will scale to more typical enterprise server pricing (eg. for
small business this will scale to be expensive for larger deployments).
However this is not required for the average small business application.
Regards,
David

Subject: [flexcoders] Opinions sought: Flex and small developers
creating some interesting gadgets I am curious if people here on the
list think that there is much point in pursuing Flex if you are a
small developer and typically cater to smaller companies.
Do people think that Flex is ever going to reach down from its current
market (and its current price) to where it is afordable for smaller
developers?
My current conundrum is that I have two applciations that I am
planning and I can do then in Flex or CF using CF Form but as much as
I want to do it in Flex I can't see that its economically feasible to
do so
Anyone think this will change? Will Adobe change past Macromedia price
points for this product?
