The first release of the application is going to utilize Adobe Flex, Swiz Framework, MySQL, and WebOrb for PHP. The idea is to create an example I have been looking for, specifically and example of using the Swiz framework with WebOrb, as well as provide a reference implementation for clients seeking my services (I am often asked for an example of my work).
The Simple Address Book will be loosely modelled after the Contacts application you get with Mac OSX. The application will have the following features;
