If you code your Javascript unobtrusively with Prototype.js and LowPro, you won't miss Rails' Javascript Helpers. We've got a simple but functional set of form helpers into Merb. You can still do respond_to and send Javascript back in response to Ajax calls. And it's super fast, both in development and production mode. I rewrote my blog in Merb and I love the experience.

I was initially turned off by Merb because of the absence of all of the view helpers, but if your view is Flex, who cares? I'll definitely be taking a look at Merb. Very insightful.
