@outlook.com
Grab your Outlook.com email address now...
I signed up for it and all I got to say is... Microsoft has out done themselves... very sleek and easy on the eye design, kudos to them.

(please remember it's still in preview mode as you will see some hotmail icons from time to time)

outlook.com has almost the same interface as the exchange webmail interface which i think is way easier to navigate through

Interesting... signed up just to reserve some email addresses. Not planning on switching from Gmail anytime in the near future though, unless there are compelling reasons to.

Signed up earlier this morning and managed to get my
firstnamelastname@outlook.com . Feels so lucky!
The interface is great. Very Metro-ish, in line with the upcoming Windows 8. I'm very excited for the launch.

you can also just log into your old hotmail.com account and rename it to a new outlook.com and it will migrate over as well.

On the top right hand corner, you'll see "Options." Click on that and you'll see the Outlook.com upgrade.

Storage space is unlimited. Attachment size default is 25MB anything larger seemlessly sends through their skydrive up to 300MB per.
