Acrobat page transitions...page curl

This seems a really simple option to me, but with all of scripting skills available today, why is it that Acrobat still does not have a 'page curl' option as a transition between pages?
 
I know that you can do page curls by converting your PDf into a Flash file like they do at Ceros Media...but why can't we do this in Acrobat now?!
 
Surely Adobe are missing a huge opportunity here especially when a company like Ceros ( see example: [link=http://dennis.cerosmedia.com/e235fcb58d53f43390e93ad32fd20df7719.cde]http://dennis.cerosmedia.com/e235fcb58d53f43390e93ad32fd20df7719.cde[/link] are already doing it with flash?
 
Surely even a basic page curl effect is not impossible to acheive?
 
I feel it would make the production of interactive PDF's much more appealing to customers and make a great addition to turning traditional printed magazines into digital editions for use online!
 
Can someone at Adobe help put me out of my misery and develop one...or tell me if someone can already do it!?
 
Thanks,
 
Dave.

Even if third paties can make them in Flash and sell them to us as custom page transitions, that would be good enough.
