i just checked my inbox with an invitation for Kahuna, which gives me option to accept the invitation, when i accepted the invitation, it said that i'll be able to get kahuna in the next 2 weeks somewhere! but then when i just checked my inbox, well everything had changed to kahuna!!!!

:D now that was fast!

pity it only works properly in i.e atm

IN ie its amazing but in anything else its rather basic

I've been in for a bit. It's alright i suppose, i don't actually use most of the convenicnce features, but the right click and drag and drop are nice, as is the 2gb storage. To be honest, gmail's grouping system is more efficient, although it's nice to see microsoft trying to add support for non-IE browsers.

When I log in to hotmail it switches to Windows Live Mail (I was in the mail Beta before), but ideas.live.com doesn't show me as being in the beta :unsure:
