I gave it a run in court. I'm a MCPD several times over, so I had to try the new Microsoft toy.
In my opinion it should've been marketed as part of the MS Office family. You encounter solutions cobbled together by smart people with no developer trainining. It's usually a mess of spaghetti development using whatever skills/products were available. Practically impossible to maintain, you scrap it and rebuild a proper solution.
Lightswitch gives non-developers tools to create business solutions in a very contrained environment. This constrainment had huge benefits and huge negatives, depending on your own skillset.
The benefit - it forces someone without developer training to adhere to a certain format of data storage and screen presentation. Yet, it also forces the non-developer to (unknowingly) adhere to some best practices and does a fair job at steering them away from "painting themselves into a corner".
The negative - if you can write a windows-form (or WPF) app that's driven by SQL (or some other) data-persistance, give this a miss. You're better off drawing on your own skillset to develop that you need. Lightswitch can and will rapidly produce a functional application, but you will run into limitations the first day. In a development environment, it does have its uses by producing thow-way apps and/or rough prototypes
