It has been hard to watch two companies that I have so much respect for have such a hard time coming to terms. The because the iPod, iPhone, and iPad do not support the Flash Player and will not be allowed Steve Jobs posted his "Thoughts on Flash" to clarify his position.

Data binding will update a property any time the bound property is modified. What it is updated with is another story. I will list various ways to use databinding beyond just mapping one value to a property.
One variable:The variable can exist in the MXML or a class it inherits.text="{total}"
