I'm trying to build a small app using real-time messaging. I don't know flash, actionscript, or flex, but I'm very comfortable with HTML & Javascript so I thought I'd give that a go.

I was able to get a sample running using the XmlSocket, but I'm interested in upping the ante to RTMP using FluorineFX. As I understand it, I should just have my Air clients agree on the topic & subtopic of a message, then use publish/subscribe to send/receive messages.

From the docs though it looks like this is a Flex-only feature. There is a NetConnection class in the Air SDK, which seems like the basis for this kind of communication, but I don't see any events that would be raised when data arrives. Can this be done without switching to Flex?
