    Hey -
    The short answer

    FlashCom is a communications server, capable of streaming audio/video/data between seperate flash clients and/or the server itself.

    Flash Remoting is a way for flash clients to connect to coldfusion, jrun and j2ee servers. It allows you to get data into flash from databases, web-services, etc. The key is that unlike loadVariables/loadVars/xml - the data comes into flash in a native actionscript format.

    Hope that helps!
