Flash Camp Atlanta is coming up next month.  Not only are the tickets to the all day event (9am-5pm) only 39.95 but flights and hotels are relativly cheap right now.

I think the gut reaction is that Atlanta is a long ways for a 1 day event, but the pricing overall is pretty reasonable for a wide audience.  I will be flying down from NY on Thursday night and leaving Saturday morning, my flight total was only a $175.

The theme for this go-around is "Enabling The Convergence of Art & Design With The Flash Platform". I know I for one am looking forward to being in the room with some great minds and learning a few things about "the science and art of the user experience". I know Andrew Powell / Universal Mind and others are working hard to put on another great event that won't dissapoint.

The Speakers Lineup right now includes:

• Greg Wilson, Adobe - Keynote
• David Tucker, Universal Mind
• Jesse Warden - Custom Components in Flex 3 & 4
  
• Carl Smith, nGenWorks
• Leif Wells, Roundbox Global
• Doug Knudsen, Universal Mind
• Ben Stucki
  
• Christian Saylor, Universal Mind

Hopefully I'll get to see a few of you there so don't be shy!

I needed to display to the users a List component with checkboxes;

• I needed to do this to remove the need for CTRL & CTRL+Shift commands that might have been 'above' the technical level of my users.
• I needed the visual effect they provided.
• I wanted the items to be highlighted and apear mostly as they do in a standard list.
• And lastly I wanted to be able to access what was choosen by the [myList.selectedItems] and not a custom holder.

I'm sure there are a few ways to make this happen, so I welcome any alternative advice. "View Source" is enabled on this flex app.
