I just bought the Adobe Acrobat 9 because I saw the video on the site... its just what I need

How can I make the same interactive pdf ? like the one on the adobe site: David Gilmour: A great day for freedom (http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/spotlight/david_gilmour)

it's not a linear presentation, but a menu setup interactive presentation(I dont want slides like Power Point)

Thanks

I'd suggest starting small and learning about Acrobat Forms. Specifically AcroForms. It's the interactive fields (mostly buttons) that are used for navigation. And JavaScript is used for the more complex features, like popup menus.
