Agreed 100%. The only thing I've seen in the Web services space that uses late binding, is WSIF. But FWIW, to respond to your earlier comment about ebXML being early bound, I think it's just the opposite, at least in some places. The whole "document/representation over TR&P" approach to message processing is definitely late bound (though I've heard that it is also used in an early bound fashion), as a client needn't have any additional a priori information about a service in order to chuck such a message at it.
