Sorry, I didn't see this question (still can't get the RSS feed to work for this topic). I've been doing lots of experimentation with SQL Azure, as Steve pointed out. My company, Red Gate, is also working to develop tools for use against SQL Azure. They're also updating their existing tools to work with it. SQL Compare & SQL Data Compare already do.

I'm not seeing much adoption rate in general, but those who do, are not going to places like SSC for help. I'm not sure where they're going for help, but it doesn't seem to be around here.

I find SQL Azure, overall, to be far less limiting than I thought it would be. But the 10gb limit (or 50gb limit with federation) makes it hard to come up with viable business uses.
