Adobe and Builder AU recently teamed up to host the Flex Developer Derby Contest with the launch of Adobe’s Adobe® Flex™ 2.0 software. We received several impressive entries and our judging panel selected the following as overall winners of the competition categories. Congratulations!

Just Freakin’ Cool (aka Wild Card)

Winner: AT2 Booking System - Nathan Vale
Prize: 42" LG Plasma screen + Xbox 360™ gaming system

Designed so that talent agents could manage their time and relationships more effectively and ultimately run an altogether smoother operation. It allows agents to record and track important information relating to their artists, clients, schedules, expenses and more. They can also generate detailed reports in order to make informed decisions.

Product Configurators/Self-Service Guided Applications

Winner: Accommodation Finder - Harald Krefting
Prize: Xbox 360™ gaming system

This intuitive finder allows you to select accommodation within the Byron Bay area with users able to sort by a plethora of criteria. An attractive and well thought out interface helps to guide the user through the booking process.

Components and Gadgets

Winner: SpellCheck - Hilary Bridel
Prize: Xbox 360™ gaming system

Making use of the Google spell checking API, this component is able to bring spell checking on TextAreas, Rich TextAreas and TextInput fields on your flex application.

Data Dashboards

Winner: CFMonitor - Ben Robinson
Prize: Xbox 360™ gaming system

An excellent real time monitoring system for Cold Fusion systems. Available graphs include averages, bytes in/out, requests queued and running, and database vs page hits.

Communication/Collaboration

Winner: gofreeSMS - MobiMarketing
Prize: Xbox 360™ gaming system

Send your friends sms worldwide in ad sponsored regions. Boosting an easy to use interface, contact list and a working gateway - this is less a Flex demo and more a fully fledged application.
