CRM 2005 SBS Bundle Eminent?

CRN has a nice article on the possibility of aCRM 2005 SBS Bundle. This confirms as well what we're hearing through the channel that either SBS 2003 R2 or SBS 2005 (codenamed "Cougar") would contain some sort of CRM Bundle.

This is actually very smart from the Microsoft side. By getting their MBS partners involved in the success of SBS will help their effort. Also as we know many small businesses become medium or large size pretty quick and having SMB's use CRM from the get go will mean more dollars later on.

For SBS customers just having additional functionality in an already fantastic product will just be icing on the cake.

We're getting into the game of CRM more heavily at TAZ Networks and readily look forward to CRM 2005 for better integration and functionality out of the box.
