Correction: Look into Flex 3. (If you're doing RIA development, that is.)

Does Flex3 work on Linux ?
I know 2 does, I was using it a month or three ago.

Yep, the SDK is available for all platforms and the apps will (obviously) run in any browser with the latest version of the Flash player.

Flex 3 lets you build AIR apps, which are just plain sweet.

I forgot how overwhelming the Flex SDK can be.
Flash via Wine I think is definately worth looking into if you want any sort of GUI.
