Also, my guess is that looking at License costs is probably a bad idea here since quite often there are services, hosting, etc. These include the hosted and locally deployed implementations from 2007. Also, are the price quotes mentioned above reasonable? What would you suggest? costs that can exceed license costs.

What's your exposure by having your content at a hosted location. The first part of the answer is whether outside parties (not you or the host) can hack into the system and get at your content.

This raises a whole host of suggestions. In other words, what I would hope to get are more practical questions - more along the lines of the question I heard at Jay's session at ASTD TK2007: "What and how can I use the concepts of informal learning to help new managers?" And looking at those suggestions raises new questions.

Because I believe that innovation in classic eLearning (courseware based) is lessening and the opportunities are going to fall to providing open-source, free-hosted and other commodity type solutions. However, I'm seeing fewer of these. Instead, real innovation is happening at the edges.

A few other LMS predictions - The bottom end of the market will continue to be eaten away by open source solutions and hosted open source solutions. Thus, the large vendors coming out of the talent management side (recruiting, performance reviews) will naturally look to combine with large traditional learning management vendors.

It's hosted. Instructor, Virtual Classroom and Social Learning Support In some cases, all that is needed is for the self-paced eLearning to be hosted, but in this case, they also still want to be able to interact with the learners. To me this is a new kind of system. I'm temporarily calling this a Rapid Learning Management System.
