I at through a seminar on the product the other day and while it's very attractive the current corporate landscape just doesn't seem practical. Basically Google wants you to trust them with your data and there might be a lot of mom & pops that do that, but big business, with the gun shy corporate security types, I just don't see it happening.

Unlikely unless they can host it - at least for the foreseeable future. Have you read the T&C for Google Apps Premier Edition yet? No public company will sign off on that kind of blanket release of liability to a host. Seems to me the big question is really “which” people will bite. Web workers? Sure. SOHO and small business?
