SAP Industry Analyst Summit

SAP puts on a nice event annually for industry analysts to help keep us up-to-date on everything (and there is a lot).  I will not spoil the fun and reveal what is in the Event note that will publish next week.  However, I will point out there were a few surprises like the announcement of a new SOA-based/SaaS solution for the midmarket.  There is a good description of this on the Ponderings of Woodrow blog.  I also spent a good amount of time getting more detail about Duet and SAP's Information Worker strategy.  The short story is that it is a good start, but there is still much unrealized potential (more on this in the Event note).   See my rant on user-centricity for more details.
