Google Apps: Too cheap to ignore?

"Google has the problem of putting finish on a lot of its products", leaving things in eternal beta, but the price point for Google Apps is forcing even the biggest of companies to seriously consider Google instead of a Microsoft Office 2007 upgrade. (Google Apps: It's not just small customers anymore.)
We may be getting to the point where Google's "cloud" allows them to provision users so much cheaper than any given enterprise can that it will become the provider of choice.
In the case of one large company, it suggested that it costs them $200/user/year to provision their users with the kind of functionality that Google can provide for $50/user/year. They just can't "compete" with that.
So they're considering Google Apps. Tie goes to the company with the most scale? And isn't it odd that Microsoft is no longer necessarily the vendor providing that scale?

Microsoft to back Flash

Microsoft has decided to support Adobe's Flash technology on its Windows mobile platform apart from its own Silverlight multimedia technology.
This is part of the software major's attempt to promote interoperability for rival systems and stave off criticsm that it is not doing enough on that front.
As part of this,Microsoft has licenced Adobe Flash Lite,the Flash player for mobile devices,and LE software,which will enable Windows Mobile users to view PDF documents.
This means that Windows Mobile users will be able to view rich web content through Internet Explorer using either Flash or Silverlight.
Similarly, Microsoft has made available both Live Search and Google Maps on Windows Mobile phones.
