Flash is completely accepted for use on an e-commerce site. It
provides a standard controllable interface for a vast majority of your
customers. HOWEVER, it is NOT for ALL e-commerce sites. There must
be a good fit between the client and the product. A lot of research
needs to bo done in order to assure you do not hurt yourself.

Download time is a non issue if it is done right. Actionscript and
dynamic loading of images, sound, and information will make a Flash
site no heavier than an html site offering the same content.
