InfoPath 2007 seems to answer all the big requests that I’ve heard of. Web forms auto-generated to match the fat client. Mobile forms auto-generated as well. Without SharePoint you lose a lot of it’s feature set for collecting data without code, but Outlook 2007 can replace grid-like data views of SharePoint in a new Outlook folder type.
Windows SharePoint Services v3 is updated with current trends like RSS, Wiki, and Blog support. It used to be said that you should wait till v3 of a Microsoft product to deploy, and this one looks worth waiting for (rather then deploying WSSv2 now). Full Internet ‘mode’ support is notable as well.
Windows Vista Wireless looks to make everything scriptable va netsh, extend GPO to support all the current security features, revamp driver models, GPO based white/black lists of SSID’s, and little tweaks here and there.
Office SharePoint Server 2007 adds a totally revamped searching service and feature set. Lots of refinements in the interface and manageability. Focus was placed on keeping the nav interface consistent in order to truly replace the document file share.
