Hardly sounds fair for those of us who purchased both VS2010 and the current version of Lightswitch as a standalone app.

@Ben – We’re not quite ready to discuss our roadmap beyond what we’ve already announced in Visual Studio 11 Beta. Please stay tuned.

@Jeff – LightSwitch will not be available in Express editions. You will need Professional, Premium or Ultimate editions. For more info on Express editions see: www.microsoft.com/.../express

@Kyle – The pricing information that we’ve released to date is on the pricing page. Check back there for updated pricing info as it becomes available: www.microsoft.com/.../pricing

Everywhere I've looked concerning the upgrade path from VS2010 to VS11, it says that VS11 will be a free upgrade if we purchase VS2010 with MSDN now. Is this also true if we purchase VS2010 without MSDN? Or will there be an upgrade charge in that case?

Looking at the announcements, I can't figure out if LightSwitch will be available in an Express edition?

Jay, so what's the roadmap for LS as far as it's platform dependency and support? For example, currently LS is built using Silverlight platform, so it depends on the SL and supports SL controls and structure. But, is this going to be it's long term platform or is there plan to move it to Win8 Desktop application or towards HTML5/JS Web platform or Both?

What's the direction of LS, will it primarily a "Desktop" application builder or "Web" application builder???

Thanks!

..Ben
