LiveCycle Designer in Acrobat X?

Anyone know where I can get more details or elaboration on what's happening to LiveCycle Designer when Acrobat X comes out?
 
Near as I can tell it looks like LiveCycle Designer will no longer be included with Acrobat Professional, but will be available by upgrading to the Acrobat X suite.
 
It also looks like new form submission functions built into Acrobat X Pro may make more form applications possible without needing to use LiveCycle Designer anymore.

My Product Information:
LiveCycle Designer, Windows

Acrobat X Pro comes with Designer ES2 (9.x).
The Acrobat X Suite includes Acrobat X Pro.

See http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/matrix.php for the product feature matrix.

LiveCycle Designer Enterprise Suite 2 is bundled with Windows versions of Adobe Acrobat X Pro and Acrobat Suite only. There are no significant changes in the forms tools within Acrobat Pro X which would make use of LCD obsolete - for example you'll still need to use it to build XFA-based documents.
