I don't really know much about Flex but... if the possible contenders are, as you said, 'ok' and 'mostly vapor', then I don't think it is too late for a big change in direction hehehe

Looking at the thing like that, I can't say I don't agree... they should really cut a few zeroes of that pricing tag.
