Work: Adobe Creative Suite 5

Adobe has finally released a new version of their must have design tool set.  This time, they scoff at Apple by allowing you to convert Flash directly to iPhone apps.  Unfortunately, Steve Jobs scoffed back and in an unprecedented act of hostility has said developers cannot use said feature.  iPhone apps aside, we are sure there are plenty of other reasons to pony up $2,500 for this software package.   Aren’t there?
