How did you learn the basics behind Flex?
Learning Flex means tackling a number of other technologies - server-side scripting / programming, some OO, CSS, XML etc.

Matt Chotin is asking what non-Flex resources helped you learn this in order to grasp Flex's programming nuances.

If you are a Flex developer these days but had to go through that broader learning curve, comment on his blog post with specific recommendations for books, blogs, websites etc that helped you.

Just started Flex development myself, background in ColdFusion programming for the last 12 years. The book "Adobe Flex 3, Training from the Source" has really helped me dive in head first into Flex development.

I liked Fex2 with ActionScript 3.0 from "Friends Of Ed(Brown)"

@Chris, have you commented on Matt's blog with that recommendation?
