The best just keeps getting better. ColdFusion MX is now available for you to experience. The brand new redesigned, replanned, rearchitected, and rebuilt product is the most significant and radical
ColdFusion since the product was created some seven years ago.
Built on open standards, providing access to the worlds of Java and .NET, making XML usable and accessible, providing object-like building blocks for structured code reuse, making Web services both easy to use and create, compiling (instead of interpreting) your code, facilitating seamless client-side Flash support, and much more all make this the ColdFusion upgrade that will change the way you build and deploy applications.
To help you get started with ColdFusion MX, here are some resources that I hope you'll find useful and informative. And as always, I welcome your feedback.
Books
Lots of new books (on ColdFusion MX) are on the way including revisions
