Where is the Typepad of Content Management Systems?

I’ve been playing around with content management systems for the past couple of months: Joomla, Typo3, Drupal, and more homegrown solutions. It seems that they’re all pretty good, but I think there’s a huge market opportunity for someone to develop the Typepad or Backpack of content management systems. By that I mean a CMS system that is:

  • Free or cheap
  • Ready to go in five minutes after signup
  • Looks great
  • Easy to use
  • Powerful
  • Scaleable
  • Customizable
  • Web 2.0 look and feel

So far I haven’t found anything like this. Some try but they don’t quite get there. Maybe somebody needs to read Getting Real and start filling this hole.
