I'm looking forward to it as it would seem to meet my requirements of providing push email at no additional charge. That said, I'd want it to work with Outlook, ideally, rather than the current Hotmail add-on that is required. I've just started trying out Hotmail in advance of the ActiveSync functionality being added and I'm not 100% impressed with the Outlook add-in. It requires you to enter a Captcha string every time you send an email, I'm having trouble getting Outlook to copy my contacts over to Hotmail and don't even get me started on the calendar!
Google Mail already offers ActiveSync but that definitely doesn't work from Outlook. A bit of a shame because at the moment it looks as if it is easier to set Google Mail up to use non-Google email addresses. Hotmail looks to be pretty darn tricky to set up like that.
Oh, and on the subject of multiple ActiveSync/Exchange accounts, I thought that Microsoft were releasing an updated email client for WM6.x in order to match the ability of Outlook 2010 to sync with multiple accounts?
