Oh come on, I read a similar response as that to some other technology 
(the name of which escapes me, because it failed to live up to the hype) 
about 10 years ago. It didn't happen then because any developer worth 
his salt knows when a technology has reached a critical mass worth 
paying attention to. I don't get paid to live on the bleeding edge, I 
get paid to implement solutions that work today. That doesn't mean I 
don't adapt when the time is right. It has a long way to go yet and only 
Microsofts coffers will dictate how fast they travel that path.

Cheers,
