Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 out, adds publish to iPad option

Adobe has released its Creative Suite 5.5 software. The big news about Creative Suite 5.5 is, of course, the ability to create content for any number of tablet devices, including the iPad. In addition to the focus on tablets, CS5.5 also includes a host of HTML5 tools, which also lends itself to content creation for tablets -- or the iPad at least, as it does not support Flash.
Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 is priced at US$2599 for CS5.5 Master Collection, $1899 for CS5.5 Design Premium, $1799 for CS5.5 Web Premium, $1699 for CS5.5 Production Premium and $1299 for CS5.5 Design Standard. Also of note is the subscription-based pricing, which is offered in 12-month plans or a month-to-month plan. You can check out the subscription prices here.

Where is this plugin for indesign cs 5 for preview on ipad? Or is this a sham?

Nearly $13,000 a YEAR for the platform, distribution fees and technical support for the professional version and over $60,000 a YEAR for the enterprise. That's before you actually build anything...then they nickel and dime you for each issue delivered (.22 each).
Bait and switch as usual from the folks at Adobe.
pardon my ignorance, but what sort of container format would these publications to the iPad be in? Thanks.

I do not see, please, if you can show me, thanks
InDesign CS 5.5 (or InDesign CS 5 with a free add-on) will allow you to export content for the iPad to either the Adobe Content Viewer or (for publishers with a distribution contract) a custom-branded viewer.
