Oh Bull@#$%. They had every intention of implimenting this. My guess is after the lambasting they took from just about everyone in the press and the fact that is could be cannon foddor of competitors and detractors that someone in the upper echelon decided to pull this and fast. It also show how desperate M$ is and to what lengths they'll go to to grab your money - I mean do I want a record that I accessed my hotmail and passport accounts at a loo at 17:36 on some corner in the Vail of Health district in London on Friday, March 27, 2003? What, did they think I would be inclined to order an extension to my M$ based cell phone while taking a dump? These guys are beyond silly - and frankly they seem more moronic with each marketing scheme they shoot out. April Fools joke my arse! April was long gone when this was announced. Hmmm, this say loads (pun intended) to me about M$' attitude about both peoples privacy and gulibility. I mean they can't even come up with a convincing lie - April Fools in May? Please!
