Get MXNA in Flex 2 Beta 1
Are you as addicted to MXNA as I am? What about Flex 2? If so, there's an easy way to keep up to date with the latest news on the Flash Platform without switching away from Flex Builder 2: Use Eclipse's internal web browser to display MXNA (or any other web site, for that matter!)
To do this, in Flex Builder 2, select Window -> Show View -> Other... and then, under the Basic folder, select Internal Web Browser. All you need to do is enter the URL for MXNA in the browser's address bar and you're set!
Of course, as OSFlashers discovered a while ago, the browser view is good for a whole range of things as it can load in SWFs such as the LuminicBox Logger and the ASUnit graphical test runner.
I'm sure you'll find lots of other creative uses for it!

Cool idea, thanks for sharing. Have you found a way to automatically open the Internal Webbrowser and Populate it to the desired URL via ANT Task?
Then on compile you could automatically load Luminic, your project, and anything else you desire...
