Hey there, I'm an two week Illustrator [CS4] newbie and well I haven't been able to find this tool [and its in Photoshop 7...]. The Warp and other tools are cool, but not the same thing, so is there a smudge tool at all is what I'm wondering?

    No, there isn't. There couldn't really be one - smudging is a pixel operation whereas AI is still a vector graphics program. You can deform the paths and contours and in turn this will affect rasterization, and you can use gradients, meshes and blends for soft transitions, but that's as good as it gets. True blending of pixels is only possible in PS.
