In his characteristic cheeky manner, the (mysterious) VAR guy wrote an article about how Exchange 2010 ties into Microsoft's main SaaS offering - BPOS. He checked out the current version of BPOS, and noticed that Exchange Online still seemed to be working on Exchange 2007. So the obvious question - When will Exchange 2010 arrive for BPOS?

Here are some answers the Var guy got from an MS spokesperson:-

1) When will Exchange Online be moved to Exchange 2010?

A. Exchange Online is updated quarterly, and BPOS users can expect the platform to be upgraded to Exchange 2010 sometime next year.

2) What about SharePoint 2010?

A. Same. Next year.

3) Will there ever come a time when the SaaS versions of MS products will be upgraded simultaneously with its on-premise releases?

A. Yes

The above creates an obvious opening for treasure hunters. Till Microsoft offers hosted Exchange 2010 and SharePoint 2010, it is a ripe market for someone to try and explore.
