That's what I thought.  But:
1) The [not customer service] person who fielded the question at Adobe
   thought it was; in fact, explained how for $7.50, they were giving away

2) SuperATM is currently listed as "in stock and shipping" in the current
   MacConnection catalog; probably available elsewhere.
