I think you pegged it... the benefit is that you save time, the
drawback is that you're limited in what you can do. I think you have
to review each framework and chose one based on your personal
preferences, the project at hand, etc.

most
of the time they don't do the things the way I would want them to
work.
If I did use one, it almost seems like I would use it to get through
something until I had time to do things the way I wanted/needed to do
them. There's a lot of talk about frameworks lately, and especially
the Zend Framework, so I'd like to look into what it's all about. I
think I might be missing out the framework issue, so I'd like to hear
other people's opinions.
I do like the mail, pdf, and a few other parts of the Zend
Framework. I
also like that it's more like a set of tools than a monolithic beast
that would take a lot of memory just to load up into your application.
Your thoughts?
Thanks,
Ray
