Thanks very much XpXpert for this!
Microsoft has resurected Hailstorm from the dead! Hailstorm was to come with new .Net features, including e-mail, an e-wallet, a calender and a .Net Passport and .Net Alerts. This resurection isn"t total, as now the only services that are already released for
MSN messenger will be included in it. The other services will still be there, but will now be realised by third party sources, which will not be officially part of Hailstorm. Hailstorm is now known as .Net My Services, a radical name change due to its service changes. Rumours go that Microsoft have done this because of the anti-trust trials, but this is still unclear. To take a look at how the "new" Hailstorm will be like, goto the link below.
