No the Access 2003 runtime is not free, but the Access 2007 is.

I don't have any clients yet using 2007 and with God on my side ;) I will be long gone from the 
Access scene and not accept any such jobs in the future.

That said, while you can create the BE in A2K / 2K3 and do all of your development there, the 
clients will likely be unable to directly purchase 2K3 any more so you are going to find more and 
more jobs spec'ed in 2K7 or 2K10.
