    It's exciting to see that Power View will finally be viewable in browsers supporting HTML5.  It looks like you have to have Office 365.  Will this same functionality be available for on premise Sharepoint?

    We are just starting to use Power Pivot and Power View with Sharepoint 2013 and Excel 2013.  From your post it looks like Power BI in Office 365 would be a better way to go because it's accessible on and IPad and alot of are users have IPads.  Since this won't be out before next year, can we develop tabular models and some reports in sharepoint 2013 and will we be able to bring them in to the new tool?  It looks like there is a new concept related to datasets that work differently.
