yes, you can import movie files, do transitions, add audio. Set videos to play when you go to a certain page, ect.
I think it could be cool for some type of portfolio.
I am sorry I don't have any examples, most agencies are still in the keynote ppt kick.
Unfortunately I have no samples. Google Volvo Interactive Brochures, they ventured in this game some while back.

I've used it before to show clients before-and-after versions of digital work, like retouches, were there are subtle changes. They could hover over, or click, on an image to reveal the previous version underneath. Easier for them than sending separate jpegs.
- not new to CS5, though. functionality has been there for several versionsGnash

To quote the author:
"Do you ever wonder (or are you currently struggling with) how you can convert your trade books, journals, whitepapers, instruction manuals and such from a “designed for print/PDF” InDesign format to a digital eBook for the iPad bookstore, the Amazon Kindle, the Barnes & Noble Nook, and other devices? Then I think you’ll love this."

Yeah, I'm making a serial of small tutorial books for Adobe Illustrator for my M.F.A. using ID to lay it out, but releasing it online so I'm putting interactivity into it and embedded video tutorials.
It's pretty nice interactivity for a page layout program.
