Adobe’s Flex 2 Challenges AJAX

Here’s a nice little article that I just read over at Tech News World about Flex 2. It talks about the pricing model and about some of Flex’s capabilities which AJAX does not possess.

“I don’t think Adobe had much of a choice if they wanted to remain competitive,” said Richard Monson-Haefel, senior analyst at the Burton Group, of the new pricing scheme. Adobe says Flex offers capabilities not available in AJAX, such as powerful data management and rich media and graphics.
