Today (Day 2 of Adobe MAX 2007) FlexBuilder for Linux was announced! Woot! Woot! You can download it from: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flex/flexbuilder_linux/

Though its an Alpha version, it is still a great news for a Linux lover like-me! too cool!

It is a stripped down version of FlexBuilder for Windows and Mac. But it will get there I guess.

* RedHat Enterprise Linux WS 4 (x86 32-bit version)
