Yeah, G-Mail's 1 Gig limit really blew Hotmail's shitty 2Mb out of the water. Just as well Microsoft have enough money to throw at something like this...

yea thats basically all it is, they're doing it to attempt to compete with g-mail. they claim they were intending to do this all along, but nowhere near this size, in order to get 250+mb you'd have to pay for the hotmail service..which is bullshit.
yet again more proof that microsoft is a piece of shit.

think it could have anything to do with the gmail feature of auto-forwarding incoming e-mails to a hotmail.com account? not very likely but then again microsoft's done some fucked up, shady things in the past.

heh... gmail owns hotmail. i'm done with hotmail, and the only reason i keep my accounts still open is because i still may get emails from people / companies that i havent updated my new gmail with.
though, i do sign into my MSN messenger to chat, but the hotmail part is closed on this sign in.

I'll give out Gmail invites if you want them. 6 of them, just to show how much better it is.

Just got upgraded to 250mb yesterday too... I think if you pay for hotmail, you get a lot more like 2GB or something. I didnt' pay but I have had 2mb for the longest time. Good to see 250mb now and a bigger attachment size capacity!
