But if you can live with these things then Flex is a dream come true. It runs on all major platforms (except for mobile...) and you can do more or less everything (except for getting out of the sandbox to talk to eg. USB devices).

Cairngorm or PureMVC only brings a lot of verbose ActionScript coding but Mate is something different! So I love Flex MVC frameworks again with Mate :) Try to take a look on Mate MVC framework (http://mate.asfusion.com/) and you will see how you can enjoy with MVC and declarative expressiveness of MXML together!
