They could have immediately released CE2K as "Audition
Elements" as they did with CEP (as "Audition"). Note that
even Adobe claims that "Soundbooth" is a completely new
application that bears little resemblance to the feature set
of CE2K. And "Soundbooth" will come out, what, maybe
3-5 years after they bought CE2K and abandoned it.
