The java guys should have been on flex a long time ago, Macromedia could have made the pricing more competitive and beat MS to the rich-client punch.
Recently, my company which is mostly a big eclipse/java/linux shop was dealing with a large defection of java devs to .Net Smart Clients. The defection was largely do to tools like VS2005, CAB and Infragistics, so the architects tried to put the hammer down. That didn't work, so the archrs had to come up with a comparable alternative, comparable in productivity and other economic metrics laid down by the devs.
