This is quite interesting and gives some ideas to take this on.. For eg.. Typically it is a major problem for the centralised IT groups to manage the desktops in their various branches.. Currently due to the way things are done, each person at the branch gets a pc with a lot more capacity than what is needed to run their
operations.. Most of the business apps reside on servers and very few apps are installed on the desktops themselves..
With the multipoint, the investment really comes down to a smaller number of pc's handling more users each with a monitor & a mouse..
This could also spawn off a business pc category.. Today the business pc is the same as a home pc whereas with multipoint, the business pc could have a different config but with more support for input devices.. So the pc vendors need not worry..
Now... when is the sdk becoming accessible to microsoft customers ?
