This is one of the deeper articles I've seen recently on OData. I'm glad the idea is gaining steam, there's a lot that it makes easy, especially when being peeked at via LinqPad

Yeah, I very much like the WCF emphasis on OData services too. However, as I understand, the WCF Data Services API is based around the Entity Framework. Is Microsoft really tying us to their own ORM framework, or are things (hopefully) a little more generic?
