Only problem with that...
SaaS and cloud are great "ideas", but at this point and time and at least in the next 10 years it's not grounded in the enterprise reality. My company is a fortune 1000 company (regulation changes moved us from 500). Our sales people - at this time - will not be able to use a "cloud" web based environment. The whole "teathered" scenario does not work.
- Wireless - too slow can costly
- Wireless - spotty at best would have to be available at every location - not there yet
- Network access - highspeed, etc. Some of our customers do not allow an outside laptop on their LAN etc.
Our guys need to have a un-teathered solution. That is at best vaporware, but heading in the right direction.

I see all of the college kids come into IT with their mobile devices and expect our sales people to use them - just not there yet. They have a very sharp reality cut that heals.
