It seems, however, that things just didn't manage to take shape, and word was handed down very recently that the incubation period had reached its conclusion -- sans product -- and resources would be directed elsewhere."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1272918678.usr10.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></em></p><p>Quite the shame. I was hoping this made it to being a real product. But, I'm betting we'll see some aspects of this in products from Microsoft in the future.</p>
