but the client-server communication is what requires flash, does it not? i thought the point of this framework was to implement comet-style communication but use flash. platforms (like any non win/linux/mac os or the iphone) that don't support flash can't use applications developed with this because there will be no client-server communication.

If you're using this as only a slice of your app stack, instead of the whole stack, it's easy to build a failover to AJAX. The same way you have Javascript degrade gracefully to HTML, you could have the Flash degrade gracefully to AJAX.

  That's three times the work if you're a designer that is already making your Javascript gracefully degrade to its HTML equivalent.

    It's always going to be extra work to provide a 100% solution. My original suggestion would work 95%+ of the time.
