Calendar is great, but they have got to get the Windows Live Mobile package to add it to their Live Mail sync options.

The site www.windowslive.com/.../Hotmail has been advertising Messenger for Live Mail for a few months now. Also, the Windows Live Essentials suite is going to replace Windows Mail, Photogallery, etc., so hopefully there won't be any confusion.

Great interview. I could be wrong but I believe his mention of Messenger for Live Mail is the first public acknowledgement of that upcoming capability.

Regarding the Dell/Windows Live deal. I hope Dell has sought and received permission to remove Windows Mail, Photo Gallery etc from their standard configured PC they ship with Live Essentials. That will avoid alot of confusion and prep consumers.
