Hosted Exchange, SharePoint Now Widely on Sale

"In five years, Microsoft expects half of all enterprise employees with e-mail to use a combined online and premises-based system like the company's Exchange Online, an executive said Monday at a launch event for that software and the SharePoint Online hosted collaboration application".

Full Story at PC World.

Re: Hosted Exchange, SharePoint Now Widely on Sale

And have my company's e-mail data contained on an external system outside my control? No thanks. If that were Microsoft's only option, I'd be looking to other solutions.

It might come to that. If that were the case, you could possibly be looking for open source solutions.

Cool Re: Hosted Exchange, SharePoint Now Widely on Sale

Also something to think about with some organisations is that there is stated policy that email communications are core business and should remain under direct control of the organisation.

Focus your efforts on one certification objective at a time, preferably the one you are weakest on at that point in time, making the objective something you understand well.

General Notes

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think housing your data outside of your control would have SOX implications for public companies.

And for healthcare companies, HIPAA implications as well.
