    Flex is for enterprise level development (no, not the Star Trek ship). Flex allows RIA integration with applications that use SAP, Oracle and other enterprise level data models.

    Flex is an application server. Just like Flash Communcation Server, you'll need to pay a hefty sum to run it.

    Macromedia/Adobe introduced it to compete with Java and J2ME.

    If you're a designer/developer, I wouldn't bother with it. If you're a developer, it might be worth the trouble learning.
