I have been running a tiny virtual company for four years now. We do not have any physical offices, just an address for legal purposes and mail. All five of us in the company work from home/home offices/client offices/toilet seats/anywhere there's wi-fi.
We've got access to all our emails, mini-ERP/CRM and all client info. We even have our phone extension running virtually on our laptops - as well as an IP desk phone at our respective bases - with Skype/MSN as a backup.
The technology is certainly there, works just fine and is relatively cheap. But it takes lots of fine-tuning and constant tweaking to get it right.
