I have now, and it looks good. In particular, the ability to swap MXML
both ways between Thermo and Flex Builder earns it major points over
Expression Designer and Blend. The fact that Axure haven't moved in this
direction has severely marked their card in my opinion. Web development
is now over 10 years old. For a design tool to have longevity, it needs
to talk to the outside world in some way.

Incidentally, the opinion of the RIA devs where I am  is that Flex is
only really any good for prototyping. The final application still need
to be coded in ActionScript to allow full control over things like video
elements. So for now at least, it's not The Grail.
