"It's a Hit!" – Early Verdicts Come In on "Real-World Flex" One-Day Seminar

'Seems like a lot going on here,' wrote John Dowdell; 'The place is pretty packed. Geeks mingled with suits; some of the geeks IN suits,' wrote Flash guru Jesse Randall Warden. 'Loooots of demos. And that's exactly what I came for,' wrote arpit. The blogosphere has been giving its early verdict on SYS-CON Events' 'Real-World Flex' One-Day Seminar...and the overwhelming verdict would seem to be that it was a hit.

#11	James O'Reilly commented on the 16 Aug 2006 Trackback Added: New York Flex User Group; Shlomy Gantz started up a Flex Users group and opened registration during the Real-World Flex Seminar at The Roosevelt Hotel in NYC. According to Shlomy, by the end of the day there were roughly a hundred registrations from both on-site and on-line ap...

#9	miMac commented on the 16 Aug 2006 Will the sessions start being made available soon on SYS-CON.TV? I wasn't there, but I am reading on various blogs that I darned well OUGHT to have been, wah!
#8	SneakPeek commented on the 16 Aug 2006 Wehn "Apollo" kicks in, Web-based applications will act like "first-class citizens" on the user's computer> They'll be free from the constraints of the browser - such as the difficulty of moving data between applications or websites, for example. Applications built on the Web will continue to be hosted on the desktop - but we want to be able to go anywhere and use anything, THAT is what Apollo will enable.
#7	eatongGreen commented on the 15 Aug 2006 In that final 'preview-of-Apollo' session a member of the audience asked Luis Polanco what the pricing point for it would be and he answered that, like the SDK for Flex, Apollo was going to be free. How can it not succeed, especially when Flash Player 9 is its runtime? MySpace currently requires Flash Player 9 to access their default video and audio players - so that's a guaranteed 42M potential consumers of Apollo apps right there!!
#6	Jman commented on the 15 Aug 2006 A Java question. Does Flex integrate with EJB?
#5	Ermac commented on the 15 Aug 2006 I love Flash and Flex, but don't see it replacing HTML anytime soon. One of the benefits though of Flex over Flash has been its development process is much closer to how traditional development shops work. There are more things I would consider Flex for than I would have considered using Flash just purely based on the economics of rapid development and maintaining code base vs the richness of Flash. So with Flex 2, I am expecting more and more applications that developers only considered HTML as the proper technology to use to give Flex a try.

#3	Futurescoper commented on the 15 Aug 2006 So, could Flex replace HTML one day? Is that what this is about?
#2	queZZtion commented on the 15 Aug 2006 Will the sessions be made available on SYS-CON.TV in due course? I couldn;t make it to the show but I sure wish I could have been there. Flash video to the rescue?! ;-)
#1	Flex4all commented on the 15 Aug 2006 Nice pictures, guys! Keep these events coming - how about the West coast???
