I'm a Flash/Flex (not flash flex) RIA developer who really wants to move into the 'RIA as the front-end of your business processes' field. I'm not overly interested in becoming a LiveCycle specialist, as such, but I certainly want to have a better handle on things than knowing how to invoke a web-service from Flex. It'd be great if my company would invest in the cash to set me up and then the time to let me figure it all out, but that just aint gonna happen so I'm left playing around the fringes trying to figure what I want to know out. I'd love to be able to get in there and build a few samples and see what can be done. I'm sure that the more the market is exposed sample implementations of what can be done with LiveCycle ( combined with a killer front-end ) the more interest/demand/involvement/innovation there will be forthcoming. I've never seen a better way to cross a chasm than a good bridge. And I can't remember seeing a bridge being built from only one side of the chasm. Looking forward to your future posts.

Actually we are already executing a twist of your idea (giving away some functionality of the software). More about that in my Blog here: http://matthiaszeller.com/blog/2006/07/26/crossing-the-chasm-by-giving-away-software-for-free/ Well I am a Product Manager at Adobe and I am reading your Blog, so your reach is further then you thought ;-) I think just giving away software is not enough to cross the chasm and get enterprise adoption.

Lifecycle is so costly that no one can afford to impliment a solution. Adobe needs to find a way to capture the form preocessing world and make it the way to do business. I have heard so many use Microsoft and IBM and simply a web page over Lifecycle just because it is too costly and there are not enough skilled resources in the technology. kudos x 2 I could not agree with you more.
