As I heard James Ward say in a presentation: JavaFX looks very promising, but you can develop Flex applications today. As a language JavaFX is promising because it does what Flex does... Create a simple declarative language for UI development. This is the topic of Bruce Eckel's "Hybridizing Java" article. There are quite a few places where JavaFX and Flex are different. These differences cause there to be distinct places where each technology is useful. I'm working on a blog that will discuss these differences but until then another good read / listen might be the interview I did with Artima at JavaOne: Flex and JavaFX James Ward jamesward.org
