Beta, I'm sure once the complaints start some changes will occur for the final :p.

I for one wish I could hide the ribbon in Windows Live Mail :zippy:, or make it more compact. Nevermind :zippy:

Hmm :o Grabbed the offline links from Liveside.
Was a little misunderstanding, the installers aren't Web and Full but Auto and Manual. The post is edited now. Auto means all apps will be installed without you getting a choice, Manual will give you choice what to install ;)\

Windows Live Wave 4 Direct Download Links

No display names :O

That seriously sucks!  What about personal messages?

They still exist, but you can also have it set to a picture or a link.

It will set it for you. If you wish to change it you will have to change via Tools > Options > Personal - Edit Name (button)

Okay got it fixed. It seems like the Web Services are having a hard time catching up with the client. I bumped into another window that asked me this.

Well they're still there...because I'm first on my contact list to update. But then Facebook integration stuffed all the accounts with the same emails with the appropriate names on it. (Everyone else still has their display name.)

Oh funny thing, and kinda stupid..."Appear offline to this person" is the longest euphemism to "Block" (FYI, it's written in full too.)

If you don't integrate to Facebook, can you still keep a WLM 2009 style display name?

Yeah I gathered block has been replaced by that. Kinda stupid.

Without Facebook integration: Uses your Windows Live profile name.

Nope, it has nothin to do with Facebook. It takes your name from your profile in W4. Read this ;)
