It all depends on what you want it to do as far as the interactivity is concerned. Since Acrobat 9 now has the Flash player capabilies built into it there may be lots of possibilities for some really spiffy interactivity. I'm no Flash developer so I don't know everything that it is capable of. But it is possible to embed swf files and embed movie and sound files in a PDF. You can even embed 3D files in a PDF. You would need Acrobat 9 Pro Extended which is a Windows only version in order to bring in 3D pieces.
It is possible with Acrobat Professional to reader enable a PDF file so users with the free Adobe Reader can work with the document and save the changes. You need to read the license agreement to know about the number limitation which is at this time 500. Personaly I find the the legal stuff hard to figure out. You can find a lot of how to articles and videos on the Acrobat User Community (AUC) site. http://www.acrobatusers.com/ They also have some galleries of PDF that people have done and download the PDF files. There is also a pretty good forum on the AUC site. They have also been doing free monthly eSeminars on various topic which are recorded for later playback.
