Ease of use was a big emphasis on stage at Convergence 2008, with Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer noting the Microsoft Office-like interface of Dynamics products in his keynote address.

At the Orlando, Fla. event, which is happening today, Microsoft demonstrated a preview of Dynamics AX 2009, which is scheduled for release in the first half of this year.

The event was also the forum for announcing closer ties with EDS. Microsoft and EDS are planning joint development and marketing efforts around Microsoft Dynamics CRM, targeting midmarket call centers and enterprises.
