I'm actually really happy when acquisitions go down like this. That is, when they keep their product running long enough to make the transition easy (i.e., not Meebo) and open source the product.

Particularly that last piece because it opens up the market to be commoditized. The secret sauce of getting a web-based viewer of a remote iPhone Simulator session is now available for anyone. And now a bunch of competing services will likely pop up (because all the hard work is done) and that means a price war. The consumers of these services are ultimately the big winner.

I hope more deals like this happen.
