Flex Builder 3 Free for Creative Suite Owners

According to this information it’s true, but not for all Creative Suite owners. It appears that if you bought Creative Suite 4 Master Collection or Web Premium after September 15th 2009 you can snaffle yourself a free license for Flex Builder 3.

Just follow the instructions (reproduced below, but you’ll need to go to the site to proceed) and Adobe will send you a serial for Flex Builder 3 – pretty cool huh?
