I too have been testing LightSwitch.

In my opinion, with the system in its current stage of development it is not really viable.

The ability to modify the UI is too narrow at this time.

Accessing the code-behind is next to impossible.

For commercial use, unless you are happy to give your customers a UI that fits MS's ideas, not your own, it has limited practicality.

What do you do if your app misbehaves in some way?

You cannot correct simple problems because you cannot get at the code easily.

So, IMO unless they provide the ability to use it for creating the basics of a system which can be extended more easily than at present it may never really be more than a home use/hobbyist system.
