I actually experimented with Adobe Streamline quite a bit back in the day. It was great for converting limited color pictures into rubber-stamp quality graphics...but that was about it. This is leaps and bounds ahead of that or LiveTrace. In my opinion, the biggest benefit of this tool will go to print designers who have to include a less-than-desirable dpi logo or graphic in a print piece. Now we can just convert these kinds of graphics to vector, scale them up without loosing a lot of quality. Sweet... Vector magic is very cool indeed.

THIS is a very nice tool. I have done a couple of jpg uploads, and its amazing how the eps files come out... I would say they are 99% like the originals! Whoaaa…. THIS is a very nice tool.
