When 8.1 is released there is a brand new Mail App that looks like a Modern Hybrid of Outlook 2013 and Outlook.com that has some really cool new features not found in either of the other products. You can see a demo in the Day One Keynote from
www.digitalwpc.com .
Thanks! Trust you to make things more complicated!!! :big smile:
Prior to this I had not really understood the extent of the changes/ refinements that 8.1 is going to bring to the table!!! I am so looking forward to this. In fact, I am tempted to go and download the preview, but I think I will wait for the formal release.
I loved the idea of the Search, the Skydrive integration and now having moved onto a Windows Phone, the tie-in with that. And, multi-tasking in the Modern UI space!!!! This is one thing that I was really missing!!!
With specific reference to the Mail app, I liked what they have done, but I will have to use it for a few days to see how it feels. And, it seems a waste to not use Outlook 2013 - on my desktop (came with my Office 365 subscription) and soon-to-be-available on the RT. I am trying to work out some way (or metric or analytic) that will help me to decide which one to use.
