I think the cloud syncronization is an excellent idea. And I say this as someone who has that now via a hosted Exchange account. I've said it before and I'll say it again: I'll never go back to POP3. Having my email and other data sync'd across all of my PCs and my phone is extremely powerful, and if it'll be available to people now without Exchange, then that's terrific. Personally, unless the new service offers some killer new feature, I'll probably stick with my current solution.

As for the new UI, it certainly looks pretty and I'm sure it'll be quite slick. I just hope it goes beyond the Today screen and is used throughout the built-in apps. And I hope it's extensible so third-party developers can use it, too.
