    it's a WYSIWYG for Flex, and Flex is a copy of HTML/JavaScript functionality. So it's good for standard interfaces.

    The Flex Framework itself is a mess, it is bloated and has a shitload of features and adds 300K to your SWFs, and the best bet for that to be adopted is if it gets cached on every computer. That will be a whole new petric of penetration.

    But it doesn't really matter because it eases the workflow from Photoshop/Illustrator to Flex, and ultimately to developers.

    Also MXML is a good idea, it helps search engines. Adobe is basically trying to replace browsers with this Flash/Flex stuff.
