The answer was horrifying. It is still not done and production ready. The JavaFX project has been around for quite some time now, and it is still not done. It does not seem to be even remotely close to production quality. It just stays unfinished. Meanwhile, Adobe has great success with the flex framework. Microsoft is pushing its silverlight technology, and will prevail on the Microsoft-minded and VisualStudio-triaged developers soon. But what does Sun and Java has to match up with? The unfinished JavaFX!

Why must sun re-invent the wheel. Sun should partner with adobe and help make flex better, and easier to access java transparently, instead of creating another bunch of libraries that do the same thing flex/flash already does. By the time java FX is ready it won't be relevant. ActionScript 3 is not difficult for the average java bloke to learn also

I am not fan of JavaFx comparing JavaFx which is still in beta with Flex which is in version 3 is not fair. Also, he didn't explain how much of experience his colleagues have with JavaFx.
