While at TechEd Europe in November 2009 I had a chance to catch up with David Robinson, Program Manager in the
SQL Azure team
and discuss...
SQL Azure 
We cover the "reboot", large databases, the new support for
SQL Azure in SQL Server Management Studio, customer feedback and futures. V2 hints include:
- bigger database
- automatic partitioning
- spatial data types
You might also want to check out the
slides of a SQL Azure session I recently delivered based on the session
David gave at TechEd and take a look at these
SQL Azure session recordings from PDC including those
of David presenting.
