So what I can see a bunch of really zoomed out images, not particularly useful or helping in any other implimentation. I had a play with it on the iPhone and I was left with a “so what” feeling.

Once this happens, I assume developers will be able to use Live Framework APIs to access contacts, calendars, mail, Live Folders, and more. It is quite possible that Mesh-Enabled Web Apps will simply reuse existing Widget hosting functionality.

It would really give Apple a run for their money - I'd find it much easier to in that then writing an iPhone app (though I imagine they'd be much slower) It would be great if they could have access to the messages, contacts, calendars etc….
