As one who worked through almost the entire beta program, right through to the final version, I can add that the development team not only did a brilliant job of turning a mind-boggling idea into reality, they did it while adding requested features from different sides of the industry at a mad rate. It became more and more evident that everyone involved was really listening to what we said, and was determined to make Flow everything we (not they) needed it to be. The "relatively late" features that appeared for the first time in the Release Candidate left us testers slack-jawed. I still have no idea how they did that, but they all work and they're all fantastic.
For anyone with a reasonably high volume InDesign workflow, especially if you also move assets to the web (Dreamweaver) and/or Flash, Flow is a real game-changer. Like anything new, it takes a week or two to get used to, but once you settle into using Flow you will never go back. I guarantee it.
