There is a good article by Microsoft watcher Mary Jo Foley about SharePoint from a Microsoft’s business perspective. Some key points worth highlighting:
Mary Jo has plans over the next few days to publish a series of posts about what makes the product tick. I look forward to reading what she has to say.

A quote from talkback number 3 to the above post: "One of its (Sharepoint's) goals apparently was to replace the need for low-level applications, especially those annoying Access databases. " I wonder if this is true?
I caught that comment too Gilad... I'm have been trying to learn a little more about how to use SharePoint, especially in conjunction with Access but I have yet to have that "Aha !" moment..... I just started working for a company in April that uses Sharepoint and we do have a site but all I seem to do is post weekly reports out there. I know I can post Access data to Sharepoint lists and link from SharePoint lists back to Access but I hear (correct me if I'm wrong) that performance is mediocre at best with anything beyond a few thousand rows ? ...and as to those "annoying Access databases...", if you thing they're annoying you should see some of the disasters I've come across when whole departments have no one with any Access experience and everything is kept in Excel spreadsheets with no rhyme or reason.
Gilad/Joe,
You will see lots more information starting next week about improvements to the way Access works with SharePoint. Stay tune...
I'll be looking for the information next week. As you, also interested in Access improvements.
