Has any else signed up for the windows live beta malarky?

I can't really see the benefit of it, it's slow, it crashes, it keeps sending emails back. Ok , it's got a reading panel but It was quicker just to look at the list. Think I will be contacting them to get rid of it soon.

Not just me then... been trying to email Fastasleep since last Friday (I think), and it either crashes, or never finishes loading up the "sending" page . It takes forever to get any emails to open.

I think if it worked properly, I'd like it, but it doesn't. I know thats the whole point of a beta, to iron out the glitches, but I kinda thought it was at the pretty much ready to run stage, not this stupid slow stage!!!

Messenger is no better... can't see much change in it, except that it crashes every 30 mins!

Did you update your messenger or did it happen automatically, mine doesnt look any different?

You have to download an update... they send it to you in an email when your beta application thingy has cleared.

oops, think I deleted that one!
