Still waiting on the Windows Live Essentials update.

Does that timeline of apps next week include the much-anticipated Windows Live Sync?

I hope error 81000451 is fixed.

It's been preventing me from signing into Messenger 9 the entire time (made a test group within Messenger after seeing this: www.liveside.net/.../groups-options-in-messenger-wave-3-activated-now-includes-groups-calendar.aspx, and i didn't work, I tried leaving the group and that f***ed it up, can't sign in anymore).

Oh, you're a tease, RebelSean :P you always are! :D

Have they really changed it that much since the last screenshots we've seen? Added any new features?

Or do you just mean you can't wait to unveil it to everyone who hasn't tried the wave 3 beta? :D lol.

I too think that the MyMSN is redundant with the Windows Live Personalized Experience. Isn't MSN supposed to be about programmed content and Windows Live about personalized experience?

I wonder what's in plan for my.live.com. While Windows Live Home does have the ability to show pre-provided feeds, it doesn't yet have the option to integrate custom feeds. I still use my.live.com as my custom feed aggregator.

I think they should merge Windows Live Personalised Experience with Windows Live Home (they just about have with the addition of Feeds in Windows Live Home) but it is ridiculous having 3 personalised hogmepages and they could easily integrate all of the Windows Live Personalised Experience features into Windows Live Home and then get rid of that and the redundant MyMSN.

It is really a pity they can't have the apps ready for the year end holidays. I look forward to the finished (wave 3) apps so that I can introduce my family to them.

Any updates on my.live.com or is that still being neglected?

This is kind of super and all. The Live suite has actually become somewhat useful over the past year or so - enough for me to use the apps on my PC and phone.

Two things we really need to see worked on (excluding space work, which seems to be ongoing, and spaces spam, which they claim is ongoing) are improvements to the Live Mobile client (eg put messenger back in, calendar sync, etc) and the live search client (why can't I copy and paste URLs and why can't I sign in to access my collections, saved directions/trips, etc?).

But it's nice to see a lot of maturity coming out of the suite.
