But the nice part is if it runs through a web browser it will be portable, 100% portable.

With the potential to be 100% unavailable due to downtime AND 100% insecure.  The hackers will sailvate over the opportunity to compromise this data.

This may not be such a great idea.  I can't imagine why I would want this.

Secure: See some of the holes in MS offices jetdb that have been there five months. Any app web based or not has that problem when you hook the system its on to a network.

Unavailable: True, but this risk could be mitigated with a good web architecture with clustering and fail over.

The hackers will sailvate over the opportunity to compromise this data.

I would never run it over the Internet, I would however run it privately on my intranet. but think about it people right now mail word documents via hotmail, gmail, and others.
