RTMFP support in Flash Media Server 4

I see that the new Flash Media Servers were released.  Looking over the information on the product pages, Flash Media Enterprise Server 4 is the only available product that supports RTMFP connections?

We currently have Flash Media Server 3.5 and our product utilizes RTMP connections, but I've been working with your Stratus Server and RTMFP and have found that the new protocol better fits our needs.  However, the price for Flash Media Enterprise Server 4 is beyond our budget.  Is there any possibility that RTMFP support are/will be available in the lower levels of Flash Media Server?  If not, is there any idea on the time frame for the end of Stratus? 

Thank you.

    What's the price of the Flash Media Enterprise Server? You've mentioned that it's beyond your budget. Could you tell me the price of it? Thanks.

    FMIS supports RTMFP unicast, and IP-multicast.  FMES is required for P2P RTMFP and Groups functionality.

    Alright, promising.  So, you're saying FMIS could handle 2 machines with 2 RTMFP unicast connections to each other?

    IE

    MachineA ----RTMFP---> MachineB

    MachineB ----RTMFP---> MachineA

    Is this correct?  I'm only concerned with 2 machines to each other at a time, no more.

    No, unicast means the client can make an RTMFP connection to the server, and data can only be sent between client and server.  P2P functionality requires FMES.
