On the topic of “teasers”, one of the things we’ll be talking about in the coming weeks is project Gemini. I won’t get into the details just yet (otherwise it wouldn’t be a teaser), other than to say it’s a powerful data analysis feature, it’s an add-in to Excel (i.e. not a built-in Excel feature), and it’s the result of collaboration between the Excel and SQL teams. The BI Blog has been covering all news related to Gemini. From the BI Blog, here are a couple sneak peak videos:
BI Power Hour: Sneak Preview of Gemini – part 1 Get a sneak preview of the new functionality for BI within Excel with Project Gemini. This demo shows how you can quickly analyze massive amounts of data, create connections to data, and share insights all within the familiar Excel environment.

Gemini was also covered in the Day Two Keynote at the Worldwide Partner Conference. You can see it in the video below if you fast forward to 1:12:45.
More details to come!

This looks exciting! Is there something I can read on it? I watched the first 3 minutes of the demo and only saw sort and pivot tables - how do I fast forward to the juicy stuff?
Cheers

Thanks everyone for your interest.
Anita: keep an eye on this blog for more info on Gemini. The BI blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/bi) has had a few posts on Gemini.
Lum & Erol: We haven't yet announced any details about requirements, supported platform, licensing, etc. Stay tuned.
Whats the release date for Excel 2010 (he says typing 2010 but hoping for a bit of a clearer idea) Already started thinking of ways to making my marketing dashboards more elegant
Mike: We haven't announced any specific release dates yet.
Is there a timeline when TP testers will be able to download Gemini?
PG looks a lot like another BI product called QlikView.
