Another problem is tha lack of sense. 
Just kidding. 

But I do mind the general idea of an all-in-one approach as it ties things 
that are rather loosely related (like notes and addresses) into one 
application. 

- From what I heard, Outlook (as the most important example) is very hard to 
understand for the average user. 

I do not want to rnt around. But maybe somebody can explain the usability 
advantage of the approach? I  did not find this discussion in the previous 
thread.
