Database software is absolutely CRITICAL for business. I hope they are improving the advanced side of this app. Companies run Windows databases because FileMaker hasn't been adequate. Last time I looked it was still hard to do a basic table layout and joins. Apple could jump into the enterprise right now if this software is up to the task. The same goes for the other usual office applications. Maybe IBM will fill the gap?

I'm not saying this to be a jerk, but you clearly don't understand Filemaker.  Filemaker is extremely popular on Windows.  Table layouts are standard and joins are effortless.  When was the last time you used Filemaker?  I'd suggest downloading the trial and giving it a spin.  It's every bit as powerful as Access and far easier from a development standpoint, not to mention cross-platform, supports iOS beautifully, and allows you to deploy your custom app on the web with a single click. I've been working with it since version 2.
