My take is it could have a large impact.

I'm sure it will. But whatever it is i hope it does more good for the developers and the customers.

Yes anytime a new company aquires a old company it changes quite a bit. Ebay is a huge company with lots of resources. I am sure the company will grow now!

My Thoughts: x.commerce will be more a commerce platform/ecosystem as opposed to a particular product so I would assume there will only be stronger integrations between magento, paypal and ebay components going forward. (Eg. Being able to leverage auction data perhaps within magento or vice-versa)
