There is really not much to SAAS that is not SOA, except that someone has
added a new marketing term to clarify best practices in software
architecture. And, there is not too much to SOA, other than forcing proper
grouping of classes and a service boundary, between SOA and n-tier
applications. And, there is not much difference from n-tier (DNA) to
properly refactored functional applications, other than organization of bits
into libaries.
BTW, this is not a new observation:
Ecclesiastes 1:9
What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is
nothing new under the sun.

Software as a Service is a logical concept of breaking out your
"applications" into reusable parts. It is similar to n-tier development,
which was popular with traditional ASP, but we also use n-tiers with
ASP.NET applications, Silverlight applications, etc.
When you treat software as a service, you group like concerns and, if
necessary, add a service layer so they can be consumed outside of library
calls. WHen you think this way, you can have completely different types
of applications accessing the same bits, as you are thinking in terms of
delivering the goods for a particular requirement no matter who desires
it.
I think what you have described is SOA not SaaS.
