Flash-y?

Adobe and Macromedia: "the primary motivation for the two companies' joining is to continue to expand and grow our business into new markets.'" - this will surely be a merger to watch... Photoshop and PDF meeting Flash - all things web and visual coming together (sometimes later this year, so no products for at least another year or more taking advantage of the possible cross-use)

So how will this influence the users - from photographers, to visual artist to webdevelopers? Will it be even easier to use a wide variety of visuals in Flash? Will it be easier to make pdf from flash - making documentation, or read-out-loud versions?

So many question - and far to long to wait. So, on to other issues.
