I think one thing not given enough consideration in this discussion is cost. We've been developing an enterprise-type application in Flex 2 and initially chose to use AMF Remoting. At the time, the licensing costs were not available. However, now that we know it will cost us $20K per CPU for unlimited connections we're reconsidering. Webservices provide a nice alternative, but the marshalling/compression done by the AMF engine between AS and Java is very powerful. We've yet to start evaluating the third party products, so I can't speak to them yet.
